  1. I got a GTX 1080 recently for $450, if AMD is releasing a 1080 ti equivalent for $600 is that a better deal?
  2. I conclude that it works as it did before and I will resell, not to any foreign country like that guy (i'm an idiot lol).
  3. I tested it, the fans work before it reaches 80 degrees, so he is either lying or an idiot. It is very loud but I knew that already.
  4. I'll have to remove the fan to plug the fan connector back. I'll try it.
  5. He said he has over 30 of them lol.
  6. I sold my R9 390 XFX on ebay. When the buyer received it he reported that the fans did not work till 80-85 degrees and that the GPU went over 90 degrees. I wish I tested that so I could invalidate his claims if he is lying. I today got the card back and the connector to the GPU fan is unplugged (seemingly impossible to do unless you remove the fan completely) and the stickers on the back were removed to unscrew. He even said he would try to fix it. So since he messed with it and I can't confirm if his original claims were true can I get my money back?
  7. Yeah, I'm thinking about upgrading my cpu to a ryzen or i7.
  8. I got a gtx 1080 for 450 for 1080p 144hz. Some games would benefit from a 1080 ti but thats 700 dollars. You think thats a good deal?
  9. In games I don't really see a decreased motion blur until i match the fps to the monitors refresh rate via vsync but that creates noticable lag. So it seems like you trade motion blur for some lag.
  10. Yeah, I have a 144hz 1080p monitor
  11. I just play games. I could sell my i5 and upgrade for like $150 later.
  12. I sold my r9 390 and got a 1080 for $450 (really $320 when I add the money from the 390). I still have an i5 4690k overclocked to 4 ghz (very modest overclock). Will a ryzen or i7 be worth it down the road?
  13. Yeah, they are cheaper, the amp one is "new, open box". I guess that means its been opened but never used? It's from an official big ebayer lol
  14. Well the amp extreme i was looking at is now sold, is the amp one just as good or close enough
  15. How big is the temperature difference?
  16. The better question, is the gigabyte one worse in performance (fps)?
