You can call it an addiction or just say im dumb but i can't stop buying the latest and greatest gpu's from whomever. My latest craze was hitting f5 on newegg trying to see if i can get the asus rog strix 1080ti. After an overwhelming amount of dont you do it i restrained myself which was a surprise even to myself. I told myself im satisfied with what i have. Now that AMD is suppose to have "high end gpus" in quotations. Should i amp myself up for their release. Or just forget about it. (green > red) (green < red) (green = red) idk :(

There is an excellent chance I'll get Vega.  It's probably not going to be the GPU for you.  It will likely compete with the 1080 and 1070 lol

Want to custom loop?  Ask me more if you are curious

You know what.. I'd wait and see. Don't get hyped, because we're at times where big companies milk people for money and delay their best products by months in order to sell overpriced flagships. Vega is not out yet. It's all speculation at this point. Be smart, look at statistics, look at what companies did the previous years. You can get fucked over so easily. 

 

Because Nvidia has the upper hand to say the least. So when AMD releases Vega, they'll try to extened it's lifespam through 2 or 3 generations. That means the first revision will likely preform the worst and be most locked version. They have to get money in and it's the way to go.. As I said. Wait and see.

Just get a 1080 Ti. I don't think that Vega will be able to compete with the 1080 Ti...

I don't think that Vega will be faster than a 1080...
