I got offered a whole 2200g system. But i run a 1080 in a 3930k CPU. I was planning to just move my card over and eventually move up to a 2700x. From doing research the 2200g apu or not still puts up decent fps with a gtx 1080. yes, it might be bottlenecked but that's not to say it is not performing good enough for games. This guy was running the setup I'm getting on 1080p and high. My advice to him would also get a better chip later on and if you run 1080 those cards are really meant for more than 1080p. But don't be afraid to try it. Just don't cut corners on PSU and ram etc. Remember these are budget cpus on a high end vid card. But to push that vid card i would say get a ryzen 5 or 7, which i plan to with taxes in a few months. But at least youll be on a new gen system and ready to upgrade little by little.

Ya i think most gtx 1080s ive seen are 8 gb, So im just gonna scoop it up this coming friday. Im just curious to why some cards use 1 different connectors etc also. Figured they where all teh same board, unless they are for the extra fans etc.

I was about to ask the same question like StarMars. I got a co worker who sold me a 1080 for cheap and has a second one for way cheap. But not same models. Both 1080s tho. And i was curious to if i should get it and will they work regardless of brand? So for example i have the gigabyte aurus and he has a evga gtx 1080 super clocked or something also to sell. Will those work as long as they are 1080/?
