But like, until I get one would it work?

So my friend is giving me his old monitor and it only has a VGA port. I have a 1070 hooked up to my main monitor, but as you probably know, the 1070 doesn't have a VGA port. I still have my old graphics card laying around (9800gt) and that does have a VGA port. Could i just shove that in a spare PCIE slot and have it power the second monitor or would that cause problems?

Linus has countless build log videos on his channel. Watch just some of them, especially the older ones, and you will have a very good idea of how to build a pc. As long as you get parts that work together, which there are plenty people online willing to do for you, building it is the least of your problems.

When it comes to the youtube autoplay rabbithole idea, I think instead of just low quality footage being recorded it should just be super low framerate. That way, you can have it basically be pictures with higher quality and still take up much less space than 30fps 720p or whatever. It also isn't important to capture normal framerate recordings of what the autoplay bots are looking at because you could always go back and look at the actual video by yourself. And in the end making a huge time lapse for all of them would be much easier.

I'm in the US and only paid $30 extra over the ACX 3.0

Probably a lot longer since they are gonna be sold out immediately on launch.

Yeah. I figured that the time I would have to wait before getting an aftermarket one is definitely worth the extra $30. Plus the FE is an excellent card anyways, even if it is a little bit louder.

1080p. I realize fully that the 1070 is meant for 1440 but I need something overkill. After having a horrible laptop and currently a 9800 gt I have to satisfy my need for overpowered graphics.

Nah man. It's too late to turn back. I need those sweet sweet frames.

I know that the proper thing to do would be to wait but I couldn't wait any longer. I got the notification from EVGA that they were available and I bought it immediately. How much did I just fuck myself?

I personally really like the FE design and it holds a lot of status. If I could get one for that cheap I would, though I'm planning on getting a 1070.

Nope. SC is $649 new and they are sold out everywhere so.

what about the plain ol' ACX 3.0 or the cheap blower style one.

I think the only situation where SLI is useful is when there aren't any GPU's that can have a significant performance increase over the one you are SLI'ing, which in this case i is very true.
