Yup, thats my job!

Also, I would support the 970 at 1080p (Not really) but on higher resolutions, the 290x wins out

You seem a bit aggressive. Maybe I will block you, when I find how to do that anyways....

Anyways at least the 290x dosent have false advertisements written all over it

Factor in it being $20 cheaper, having mantle and Freesync (GSYNC has fewer monitors)

I'll factor in your fanboyism and ignorance, I still haven't seen the firestrike ultra test that will supposedly "VRAM GATE" me.

lol The guy has been salty towards me since I called him a bragger. 

I find that hard to believe since you have been bragging about this magical "x99" build that you are making. It's been 3 months, where is it?
