Posted December 2, 2013 Author Wow, I checked Amazon to see if I could help you out with a find and some of those prices..they are borderline R9 290 territory. Some are 290X or even 780 Ti level prices! Newegg won't update the stock and I'm planning to get the Asus card. I NEED the upgrade as I have a crappy GT610 which the only thing it can really do well is overclock and play TF2 at 60 Frames down to 45 Frames.

Posted December 2, 2013 Cause the Norwegians have more money Maybe we do, but we also pay a lot more for our hardware and general stuff... Example: I payed 5.800-5.900 USD (36000 NOK) for my computer a few months back… That is including speakers, peripherals OS and the rest of the stuff, but what do thou think the price would have been in the US?

Posted December 2, 2013 Author Which ASUS one? Get the DCUII V2 if you can. Triple slot, cooler, quieter, BACKPLATE, and sexier (imo). Problem is I have against the V2 is the triple slot design. The backplate is a HUGE plus but the previous design coolers had one HUGE problem: weight. That thing was fucking heavy! and the temperature difference in coolers isn't that big.
