  1. How is that so? Future proofing is such a hoax. DDR4 shows very little perfomance gain and USB typc C boosts Mobo price by quite a bit. Even then Skylake has marginal improvement rate and if you have discrete GPU you shouldn't care about the improved integrated.
  2. I mean i'd refuse too... 1514 is really high and the card only makes promises on stock speeds.
  3. http://www.overclock3d.net/articles/gpu_displays/amd_s_revised_r9_fury_x_-_pump_whine_issues/1 Overclocked says its fixed as well. + you can always open the Fury to check if you have the <<fixed>> pump now since it doens't damage the warranty.
  4. If elecrtricity is heap where you are it really doesn't cost that much, maybe 5-10ish dollars per year max. A 850 PSU's more than fine....
  5. You can probably find one on R/ hardwareswap for that price.
  6. So i just acquired a 295X2 and I love it. The only problem is that under load the fan can get somewhat load and I'd like to look and get 2 fans (instead of 1) who could be quieter (or just perform better). I know the NH-F12 is really popular but I wanted to know what's the best fan out there (no regards to money).
  7. Or you know, don't just casually drop a 650$ US GPU. If i were AMD i wouldn't send him shit again. Send a free flagship GPU and you just drop it and be like <<lol>> holy smokes.
  8. 80 Mhz on base 1000's like 100 on base 1200. Agreed it's not a lot but really that's probably the way it should be. Both OC'd 980Ti and FuryX are similar. The only thing is that reviewers usually get GREAT chips from Nvidia. Now even if you get a shoddy chip you really don't lose anything.
  9. For OC? Cmon now. You on the other end are arguing cards" heat output who would cost a combined 1500+USD$ really matters. As if people who can blow a grand a half on GPUs cant afford decent AC.
  10. if you wanna OC G1 Gaming's the best 980TI so far.
  11. ? They're binned. You pay more for the binned chips. It's not like they have their nefarious marketing plan where your GPU is actually snake oil. There's no hiding it's a premium card and it comes with a premium cost.
  12. ? Of course they do. I'm just saying complaining about Obamacare while living on military money sorta hypocritical. I'm all for universal health care. It's a right not a privilege.
  13. Unpopular opinion: US Army's a giant welfare system for people with no real skills.
  14. Reference gets hotter, faster. Really no reason to use them unless you SLI (in which case blower becomes nice because it exhausts at the back)
  15. Some people dedicate their lives to making profit out of other people and putting them in awful situations. Have no sympathy for these people.
  16. Well in this case buying a 980 now is just dumb because you could wait 2 weeks, get a price cut or get 20% boost buying something else. There is no way you can flip this that buying a 980 now makes sense.
  17. You're just stuck trying to convince yourself your card isn't garbage 2 months after you got it. Yeah all these insults good luck with the reports bro. BTW when they dropped 50$ they also removed that free copie of Witcher 3 you got. So a great rebate.
  18. Yeah I suppose all the people with benchmarks are just a vicious conspiracy circle that will be debunked by monday. Oh well by the time you can actually purchase it someone that fits your criterias (lol) on youtube will have posted the same exact stuff. By that time if Nvidia doesnt drop its damn price its still gonna be ass. Buying things a week before another product that should shatter yours is just plain being an awful consumer. In that case I guess you deserve the 980.
  19. Oh and all the other benchmarks not released by AMD too but that would just disprove your point. Well guess I'm a huge fanboy with my complete non AMD build nice try though.
  20. Nice switch now that you got reckt. Try again it's available in not even a 2-3 days. Really youre gonna advice people not to wait 3 days to get 20% performance for free? Lmao.
  21. <<Buy the best card you can at the price you can afford. And for f***'s sake, pull the trigger.>> No not really. You just willingly ignored 1 factor that renders the 980 trash at its price point. Nothing should ever be considered relative to it's own lineup, just its place in the whole market. Even if Linus did make a somewhat rash statement the end goal is the same, the 980 is still shit for other reasons.
  22. If you put AMD in the picture you'd get how this makes no sense. Yes it's 500$ but most custom cards are 520$. So for 30$ you can get a Fury or 20% more performance. A dollar and 50 cent for 1%. Unless you're a power Nvidia Fanboy there is absolutely no reason to get a GTX 980.
