Is there people who are really that gullible?  If I had spent that much on mine I would be sick to my stomach.

CPU: Intel i5 3470@3.8ghz, Motherboard: Biostar TZ77A, Ram: 8GB G.Skill Ripjaws 1600, GPU: EVGA SC GTX 970 ACX 2.0 , PSU: Corsair CX600, Case: Antec 300, OS: Windows 8.1 Pro 64

Why does it state the Vram capacity in 2 different places and sizes.

What am I missing here. Also, "stream processors: Other" why does it say other?

 

Spoiler

Case Bitfenix Ghost, Mobo Asus Maximus VIII Ranger, CPU i7 6700K @4.2 Ghz cooled by Arctic cooling Freezer i30, (barely). GPU Nvidia GTX 970 Gigabyte G1 @1519Mhz core, RAM 16Gb Crucial Ballistix CL16 @2400Mhz. SSD 128GB Sandisk Ultra Plus as my OS drive. HDD's  1TB  Seagate ST31000524AS its OEM, 3TB Seagate Barracuda, 2x 500GB WDC Blue (RAID 0)

If it isn't working absolutely perfectly, according to all your assumptions, it is broken.

That doesn't look right... That reminds me of a local shop that sells a whole bunch of stuff, tech related and gaming. They have a lot of games whose release price remains the same after 5 years, LOL. For example, Batman Arkham Asylum for xbox360 released in 2009 with a price tag of 69,99€ remains at 69,99€ up until today... That just doesn't make sense.

Smaller shops can't really benefit from sales that much I guess - not enough people know about them - , they probably don't have any new games on release anyhow.
