Because NVIDIA doesn't want to. Easy.

GTX 780 is a lot more powerful than GTX 1050ti

About on par with GTX 970

And about 20% slower than a GTX 1060 6GB

So for 1080p it's still a very good card that can play most games on high and 60FPS...that said, the performance comparaison in games is a bit worse than the numbers you see on userbenchmark because it's an older architecture that is not up to snuff with some new tech in games and driver optimization wise, but it's still a good card i would pick that over a 1050ti any day of the week. ( i had the MSI gaming 780 back in the day and it was a bloody good card, very quiet)

Oops, sorry I missed that. The 780 is better than any of those cards. If you check my graphic above from techpowerup's GTX 1060 review it shows the GTX 780 with about an 11% lead over the R9 280x, and the R9 280 is a cut down 280x. The HD 7950 is the original incarnation of the R9 280 with lower clocks. The GTX 780 smokes all of those cards you listed in that price range. I don't know if it's worth paying 35% more for the 1050 Ti over the 780 other than you'd be getting a much newer card. If it was a 15% difference in price I'd say get the 1050 Ti. If it was a 50% difference in price the 780 would be a no-brainer. At 35% I'd probably still lean 780 as long as you know the card is in good working order and the previous owner took care of it.

well it's running at 1163mhz in the video which is average clock for a 780...most of them can do 1200mhz+...this one was able to do 1225mhz but in this video i was using another profile i guess.

Lets say 660 is equal to 750ti
 
GTX 780 is roughly 2x faster

That's intel technology dude, AMD ain't gonna have that

I would not upgrade the CPU now. I would keep the current CPU/Motherboard and upgrade them later when RyZen launchs.
If you are buying FreeSync Enabled monitor then you should consider buying an AMD graphics card. I would recommend RX 470 4gig.
 

Most hardcore overclockers still use PS/2 port in order to use an old keyboard that is %100 compatible with BIOS.

These monitors have two display inputs. One HDMI and one DisplayPort. I think you should not have any problem with two devices connected to the monitor.

Sticker on PCB will be the best source.
 
Or use Aida64.

Running over the advertised speed of a product.
 
e.g. your cpu has a stock speed of 3.5GHz or 3,500MHz
When you run it at 3,501MHz, that is call a overclock.

its because all the real hardware geeks have an old AF keyboard that they love the shit out of that they use when building PCs lol. also it helps to disable all USB connectivity when doing hardcore LN2 overclocking

Well we (other users in forum) need more information about your system and the PSU that you decided to use. "430W PSU" is just not enough information.

It will work but not at 2400 MHz.

i was getting a 850w originaly but they are out of stock and wont get stock for a long time

Nostalgic.

So, how is mine?

Why is anyone even upgrading to AM3 anymore? It's a dead platform. 
 
 

I just didn't like it at all,  the bios was annoying,  it didn't post fast,  it didn't recover from a bad oc,  it's came up with 00 post code when the cpu worked after in my msi and asrock board.  
 
I have loads of Asus boards,  but I really don't think their z170 boards are good at all. 

Specs of you pc? Try to renew thermal paste.

It didn't helped. Thanks anyway

In fact it does. Most people from here done this right.

Well I tried Antinomy's modded bios and it WORKED! It detected all drives but there is a problem. Windows didn't booted at all. I tried Safe mode and it didn't booted. PC restarted itself. I've done configuring my BIOS to AHCI but I haven't done configuring Windows. I can upload a video If you guys want.

Interested in it. Didn't quite remember whole process on 775.

Windows won't boot when its original setting was IDE. You will need to redo the entire OS with ACHI drivers or try this method first
