980ti is $650. I was thinking it would be around $750

It's temping I want to see how it stacks vs the 300 series first.

I might sell this 980 and switch to the ti. A used 980 should get me at least $300-$350 if they cost $499 new.

If you eBay it I would buy it

I probably shoulda waited for the 980tis

Coulda saved myself $800

Maybe they work in nvidia surround too (they better not though, unless they fix the titan xs first )

@daze23 you picking this card up? (I know you said you might in the past)

 

[Dirty Mcdrawz]

Just ordered mines. Got the Gigabyte one as it was the cheapest, going to hook it up to a g10 bracket to water cool it. 35c at full load here I come.

Damn that 980 ti is mean

For under 700 it's a borderline steal

The regular 980's are blowing through everything I have at 1600p so I won't be upgrading my rig until next christmas at the earliest...

Anything after i5 is decent, I my self am sitting on a 4770k that I got for 200$ of some staple ish.

seriously considering it. but it looks like they're sold out everywhere at the moment. maybe that's for the best...

(for some reason I'm not getting alerts when people tag me)

If those 980tis work in sli surround, I might ask for a refund from nvidia. They still haven't fixed the titan x sli surround bug . I didn't pay $2k to play on 1 1440p monitor. Not that the witcher could do 3 monitors at all ultra 60fps, but it's the principle.
