"warning, my english is not good"

 

So, im starting to love the msi gtx 980ti golden edition. 

 

And, i like the features that come with msi stuff. so, is it stupid to pay that extra for the golden edition? (beware, im on a orange setup, so the red version wont do)

 

Please let me know :)

Do you think it's worth it? No one can tell you what it's worth to have something one product provides over another - it's all mostly preference. You're the one that's going to be quantifying the value.

Only kings pay for vanity! If thou want's any gold for thy heirs to inherit, vanity will not do! If you are a king, then may that be different, but it is a great choice that must be made good ser!

It looks as if the peasants have risen up, and found swords!


But their sword's look a little short, if you know what I mean!


Good! The squires need training anyway!

Well, it does have an all-copper heatsink, which will help cooling by a pretty large amount.

You're not alone. I spent 180us for a MX Cherry RGB keyboard of goodness myself.

If anyone asks you never saw me.

i think i should send this back immediately before i fall too deep into love with this keybo... aaannndd its too late =( gg 150 euros. iv been using this for 3 hours now. this is kinda the same situation when i was like: "who needs a gaming mouse..." then when i got one i thought how had i lived so long without one. i will never, ever, use a standard mouse again. probably from now on i will always use mechanical keyboard aswell.
