Yea, first 1440. I've seen them before but never really got to play with them. The available workspace and general aesthetics of games is just so much improved, I love it.

 

Resale on FE should probably remain fine. In my experience, second-hand buyers aren't always smart about their purchases.

You'll love it  

 

Yeah I ended up feeling quite guilty after selling my 390's on ebay. Bought them for £260 and sold them for £240. The guy bought one and was happy but then two days later RX480 leaks went mainstream... He messaged me like 'Oh man I wish I'd waited.' The irony was he worked for a well known UK retailer.

 

Lesson: Don'y listen to salesmen at PC World. They haven't got a clue.

Welcome to enthusiast level gaming. Your decoder ring is in the mail. Mind Ivan and Don, they tend to bark when you walk by them and they smell gaming affluence.

No ring for the 970 Peasant Race?

My 4790k never goes over 60c while at 4.6GHz using a H105, no matter the test.  Because it's at the stock voltage. Never giving it up lol

[latentjones]

What 2.1ghz feels like...

Take price out of the equation and it's proving to be what Nvidia said it was. The MSI and ASUS custom cards sent out with custom bios for reviewers can't beat it by much with more power phases at their disposal. Nvidia might have been telling the truth about why they priced it where they did. If the FE was the cheaper version, I sure as hell wouldn't spend more to get RGB lights. Oh, and price a MSI Gaming X 1080 verses a FE.

Yes yes, and reading your reasons why you got a FE card would've changed what I post.

Oh wow, we're all about "performance" only now?

I said if you look just at performance. Just because we don't have the money doesn't mean someone who does shouldn't spend it how they deem fit.

Who's the "we"?

 

Sorry the nvidia club always looks at superior features. So you talking about performance took me aback.

 

Qoute me in the post where i said op shouldn't have bought a 1080 or should regret buying a 1080.

Oh, apologies. You clearly meant Fred Ernstwein who heroically saved three tomatoes from being turned into marinara. Fell victim to a mopped floor with no wet floor sign.
