My 970 was $330. Do I select $300? Or $400? Am I rounding up? Down? Why not make the poll brackets? ($0-100, $100-200, $200-300, and so on.)

Assuming this is in USD?

 

My GTX 780 literally 2 weeks before the Ti released (boy I was pissed)

 

£580 Great British Pounds roughly converts to around $900 I paid for it at the time.

Bought it from America with 35USD international shipping, still a much better deal than buying in Australia unfortunately.

Around 300€ for my monitor, like 50€ less for the GPU. 3TB WD Black wasn't cheap either, I think it was around 220€.

Here, at the moment our dollar is a little less weaker so it is an even better deal now than when I bought it.

About $400-ish USD for my EVGA GTX 770 (NVTTM Superclocked) back when they were new. And an extremely close second was my monitor at about $390. That was in 08 though so really I probably spent more than the video card taking inflation into account.

 

Hopefully in the very near future I will destroy that figure with my next video card.

If we are counting parts that go inside the case, then $450 on my GTX670. If we are counting anything, then $550 on my Asus PB287Q.
