did you order through amazon?

This is what amazon says for me. I pre-ordered on October 10th. Not yet shipped Delivery estimate: We need a little more time to provide you with a good estimate. We'll notify you via e-mail as soon as we have an estimated delivery date.

well I got to money sooo, why should i go cheap.

I dont think so. I think 2080ti is better for 4k 60hz. I might as well get a 1080ti instead of 2080, no point for wasting money for 2080. I'll get a 2080ti.

maybe i should get 2080ti instead of 2080? do you think thats worth it?

Hi thanks! But this is still $540 cheaper than my budget. I want to spend all of it on this build.

gaming mainly and USD

As the title says, I saved up 2500 USD for this Christmas to build myself a new rig. I already have 4k monitor and all the peripherals. I just need some advise on choosing the right components that will go into the tower. I am planning to spend all of the 2500$ for this build. I haven't purchased anything yet. I will be using this PC for gaming only.

If you could find RTX within 100$ of 1080ti. I would go for RTX, it would be easier to sell when you are ready to upgrade again.

isnt it obvious?

Most of the major sellers for 2080ti FE (amazon, newegg, nvidia) are out of stock on 1200$ 2080ti model. And they are for sale on ebay starting from 1550$ and up. From previous experience, can you guys tell when will nvidia start selling the founders edition on their website for 1200$ again? I opted-in for email notifications but I have no idea when they will sell it again. Is it good idea to buy it from ebay for 200$-300$ more? or I should probably wait for about a month and buy it from amazon or newegg.

I know everyone complains about the condensate with chiller cooling. So is it possible to put all of the motherboard and graphics card in a big vacuum chamber that is very well insulated and cool it down as far as possible maybe near 0k. Just like how quantum comps work, then overclock and beat all the world records. I know this is just a theory but I'm curious if this could be done.

seems like everyone is following apple's strategy, the more expensive the better.

That's what I thought too, but seems like a lot of people have bad opinions on 9900k and 2080. I probably would need to wait for a little while and see how good 9900 actually is and see some benchmarks.

Well I already have i7-7700 and GTX-1060 which is way better than RX580 and it runs those games fine. I was kind of looking for an upgrade. So I should just stay with what I have then. No reason to upgrade?
