>>51829499
where the fuck did you get 170 squids? any why would someone want to trade a graphics card for them?
>>
>>51829499
you fucked up badly, you can get a R9 380 or GTX960 for less than that
>>
>>51829499
got some bad news for you
>>
You got your shit pushed in, bro!
>>
>>51829499
not really. 170 quid into usd is 250. Do you live in one of the areas where GPU's are wildly expensive? Here is us, 970's are ~290$, and there is no comparison between a 770 and 970.

Honestly, the only reason to buy a 770 now is because you got a killer deal on a used one, like 80 quid. Otherwise, it is not a very good option.
>>
>>51829534
960 is not as powerful and costs more even second hand.
>>51829614
Ireland so a 970 would set me back around 350 - 400 euro.

Upgrading from a 6870. This is kind of a temporary thing
>>
>>51829688
A 770 is a hell of an upgrade from a 6870, but the 770 is sort of in an odd place price wise, it is priced very high considering its performance. You could have gotten a used GTX680, which is the same card, for like 100 quid if you look in the right place.
>>
>>51829758
I'm looking on ebay and a local site. 680s still going for mad amounts. Bloody Ireland and UK prices. Shit Euro as well
>>
>>51829804
Damn, here in us, i see 2 different 680's on a local site, both 100$, which is 65 quid.
>>
>>51829876
200 - 250 here ;_;
>>
so noob question when a video card says dx11 support, that means it wont have dx12 support or what?
>>
>>51829499
Yeah its pretty good man, get that off adverts or done deal. Please don't tell me you bought it new
>>
>>51830218
Adverts used mate
>>
>>51829758
960 is faster in gameworks trash but 770 is the better card overall.

770 user here.
>>
>>51829688

If 170 quids is a huge amount to you, buying a "meh" card right now for cheap is a good idea. Pascal is supposed to be a huge jump, waiting on 10xx or 11xx vs selling out on a 980/ti is a great move.

> Did I do good /g/?
Considering I paid that for one of my 290s 12 months ago, no you did not.

There's like 7 currently on Ebay in the £130-155 range.
>>
a 770 4 gig card has been on craigslist for a month now and nobody has bought it. $100. i'm tempted to buy it myself even though i don't really need it.
>>
>>51830148
correct
>>
>>51830311
Thats around the same if not more in Euro.
>>51830294
Yeah I'm poor

Ahahaha, no. That's a ridiculous price for that card. OCUK were selling off brand new 780s for that price a couple of months ago. Not some shitty, cheap blower-style cooler like that either. They were selling brand new 770s for £110 at the same time, because MSI found a bunch of stock in the back of a warehouse.

You didn't say Euro, you said squid.
>>
>>51830360
Change that to Euro and add shipping :)

GTX 770 is good choice for used GPUs, but I don't about princesin the UK
>>
>>51830433
Listen here you Irish retard, if you meant Euros then you should have said Euros. You may as well said Yen in your original post, dumbass.

Hello to you too you angry fucker
>>
>>51830334
im the same way, I buy GPUs if it is a good price. I just bought a 570 3 days ago for 45$, i dont need a fucking 570, i have a 980.
>>
>>51830433
It's still a horrible price for that card no matter what way you want to spin it. Kepler is a fucking disaster in newer games. I regret purchasing that 780, even though it has 970 performance on paper (and in older games) once overclocked. Literally all the games I'm playing at the moment, namely Fallout 4, Just Cause 3, Dragon Age: Inquisition and Ass Creed: Syndicate run like ass, even with a heavy overclock to 1202MHz.

I only bought it as a holdover until next year and I'm counting the fucking days. Still regret selling my 290X earlier in the year.
>>
>>51830633

i figure i can retire the 560ti in my work pc with the 770 since my 280x is selling soon. need something if my 290x shits the fan to get by with.
>>
>>51830711
Shit man I wasn't spinning it, I was showing how bad the Euro prices are. That sounds bad though. Oh well
