Two weeks from now, I'm finally building a new PC. Does anyone know if any graphics card manufacturers are running deals? Either way I'm planning on getting the game once the PC is built. Two weeks until Black Friday for me.  Is anyone else gunning for a similar deal?

From the looks of the intial drivers I would say go nvidia if you can, but by the time you get aroudn to building your PC amd might have sorted their shit out. 

CPU: Intel 3570 GPUs: Nvidia GTX 660Ti Case: Fractal design Define R4  Storage: 1TB WD Caviar Black & 240GB Hyper X 3k SSD Sound: Custom One Pros Keyboard: Ducky Shine 4 Mouse: Logitech G500

There is a 970 with a Fallout backplate, but that's about it.

On the plus side, the SSC is usually capable of hitting 1500 MHz. On the negative side I can't go on eBay and buy that fucking backplate to slap on my card since I have the EVGA GTX 970 SC.  :angry:

I'm a Bethesda fanboy and I think that backplate is hideous lol. It's got holes in his head, very poorly planed out. Nice GPU though.

If anyone asks you never saw me.

I'd love to put that on my 970. And it looks like it would be super easy to paint by myself, but the goddamn backplate that fits my card has all these big holes that would fuck it all up.

Why didn't they go Robco, or anything from the Fallout universe that would be easy to work around the holes with. And that fan shroud. Some Kia is looking for it's dash. I was jealous until I saw it. They should have used a reference cooler. I would have got one.
