gtx 1070 might not run 1440p games at high settings 3-4 years later.

 

no hard disk?

isn't it pretty much the same thing?

They're both digital currencies, but eth seems to be way more popular atm, and is causing all GPU's under a 1080 to go out of stock and sell for 200 dollars more on ebay :)

I made two small changes. The ssd wasn't very good and you were paying way too much for it and a higher wattage version of the same psu was available for cheaper so I switched those.

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

 

Do this:

And make sure you do it by hitting the quote button at the bottom left of my post, and not the one inside the editor!

Or this:

@DocSwag

 

Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market.

 

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.
