All this waiting...

 

If you spend your life waiting for PC parts, you'll land up waiting 2 years for intels next change of architecture CPU (skylake), getting a Tesla card (or whatever) etc.

Just workout what you want now and go for it!

 

AMD didn't really impress me last night, I was hoping the R9280x to be something fresh, the fact that its a 7970 annoys me.

I'm the one who overclocks.

 

CPU: i5 2500k w/CM Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO OC'd@4.2GHz RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8GB  MOBO: Intel Burrage DP67BG GPU: MSI GTX770 Twin Frozr 2GB HDD: 2x Seagate 2TB Barracuda PSU: Gigabyte ODIN 550W

Volta GPU from Nvidia, 1TB/s bandwidth. Not Tesla, I could get Tesla now since it's line of proffesional GPUs for supercomputers. ;D

 

Well the 270x is 7870 or at best 7870xt which puts it MORE expensive than current 7950... LOL NOPE.AVI not buying 0/10...

So... If Jesus had the gold, would he buy himself out instead of waiting 3 days for the respawn?

Haha yes indeed! I couldn't remember the name and I didn't feel like googling

 

Yeah I'm just a little bummed by the reveal so, looks like GTX770 it is.
