Posted September 22, 2014 the GTX 970 is a bang for the buck card. and it can match both the R9 290/R9 290X in price if you OC the card. in singapore the GTX 780 goes for SGD$899.00 and the GTX 970 is SGD$506.00 the GTX980 is like SGD$888.00and a GTX970 sells for SGD$506.00 The GTX980 does at most 10 -12% better then the 970 but it's like $300.00 more ...

Posted September 22, 2014 Th X80 cards have never made sense after release. Even Linus recommends to allways get the 2nd best card. who cares... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted September 22, 2014 But As I recall, after like 3 moths of the card is in the market, the driver updates improve a lot of performance.(we had the same problem but after 3-4 months we could see the real performance).

Everybody knows Nvidia is a Singapore based company, so they'd always have the lowest prices........oh wait they're an American company, and in America the prices are different.

Posted September 22, 2014 That always happens with the x70 card. However, just like some people bought a 780ti over a much lower priced 780 or r9 290, others will still buy the 980.

Posted September 22, 2014 do you have the link to the video? Pretty sure it was a really old WAN show, he recommends buying the second best card and saving money so you can upgrade semi regularly.

Posted September 22, 2014 =.= 6 fps....the GTX 970 is already running my friend's games on high at 70 - 76 fps I think iI'd rather save the $300.00 lol My 780ti runs BF on ultra with 90-100 fps. The 980 is better. SO that'll maybe run it at 110 (?) So that's about 40 fps more. That's my experience so.. idk, for 40 fps I'd spent 300$ more The Beast: CPU: i7 4790K GPU: EVGA 1080 SC Cooling: Dual NZXT Kraken x61 RAM: HyperX Fury 1866MHz Storage: SSD: 500GB Samsung EVO 840 + HDD: 1TB WD MOBO: Asus Z97 - a PSU: RM850x Case: H440 green-black Setup: Link PCPP: Link Evolution: Link Gear: PS4 with custom skin // Astro A50 Xbox edition to fit colour scheme // Oppo PM-3 Planar Magnetic Closed Back Headphones // OnePlus One 64GB sandstone Other stuffs: Acer aspire 128GB SSD 10GB RAM // MacBook Pro 13" 500GB SSD 16GB RAM // A 2009 iMac 21" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted September 22, 2014 980 is only going to last 2 months at that price anyway, will drop when the inevitable 980 Ti comes along to trollface the schmucks who bought the 980.

Posted September 22, 2014 and i'll be one of the schmucks be laughing off with even lower price drop of the GTX970 lol 970 is unlikely to drop because of a 980 Ti launch, the gap in price is already too large between the 970 and 980. Or maybe Nvidia's tactic THIS TIME is to make a 970 Ti, so they can harvest even more tears. All this aside, what I'm really hoping for is an ASUS GTX 970 MARS. Just the thought gives me spinal frequency modulation. In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.
