What's your excuse for being poor?
>600 monopoly money on a card that isn't even top of the line
Why? I mean, most people could waste money like that, but for what realistic purpose other than to say 'Hey guys look I wasted money you're poor.'?

Fuck, I wish I had even half of that cash to throw about.
This cunting job market in Oz is killing me but have some bloody fun with that.
>>54768220
so is MSI the best aftermarket to buy from?
>>54768446
Get your IFF database checked, I'm flying green.
I just happen not to be so delusional as to believe every lie that falls out of an Nvidia rep's cockholster.

more like why haven't you learned that being an early adopter is rolling the dice?
Early adopters get cucked, it's generally sensible to wait a few months for AMD to release their cards so that nvidia drop their prices accordingly.
There will be better aftermarket coolers too.
>>54768527
>too poor to gamble
lmao
>>54768527
This.
Nvidia is brilliant, saying that the 1080 has TEW ECKS the performance in VR. The people gullible enough to fall for hype are prone to do it again.
>>54768489
evga have the best warranties of anybody
equivalent MSI is more expensive

Shit bro you sure are smart and rich please fuck my girlfriend.
>>54768573

because before i can even think about upgrading my GPU i need to upgrade my CPU and motherboard
I've lost control over my life.

OP here. Fuck you, dickface. I've been running on Intel integrated graphics for 2 months. I can't wait for AMD's shit attempts at competition in October.
If AMD wanted my money then they shouldn't be making piss poor decisions by giving away the market to NVIDIA.
>>54768651
>can't wait for AMD's shit attempts at competition in October.
And you can't wait a few weeks to see how things shake out with the 1080?
Every time a new gpu launches there is at least one abp who fucks it up and has a ton of rma'd cards
>>54768428
Lolno, go past gaming cards
32gb FirePro w9100
That's the best cars on the market
>>54768220
Nearly £600 for a GPU?. No, not poor and not that stupid. I am going to exercise jewery here.
>>54768647
aww
Where are you purchasing it from? Can't find it on any retail site and EVGA's keeps timing out.
>>54768777
I can only imagine what a fucking car would do to my PCIe slot.

If you're trying to show off, well... you're failed.
You could build an entire pc that will run current vidya on ultra for that price.
You've been goyim'd my friend.
>>54768861
Scan.co.uk
Do not buy from Overclockers. They have a premium on every single card.
>>54768772
Prices won't go down m8. nVidia controls this part of the market.
980 Ti prices didn't even start going down until last week. Heck, even 980 retail prices are still the same as 6 months ago. If you think 1080 prices are going to drop in a month you're delusional. If anything the price is going to go up because of low stock everywhere and vultures selling at higher prices.
>spending 600 bucks makes you rich
>>54768971
You're wrong and full of shit.
Every year we have the same release and every year nvidia adjusts their prices to stay competitive, Polaris will likely perform well at a much lower price point just like the 2xx series forced them to drop the 970 by £50 a few months after release.
>>54768925
>Scam
Enjoy being fucked if anything goes wrong. Their customer service is the worst around. OCUK might be jews, but they've never let me down in terms of RMA. I'd pay an extra tenner not to use those Bolton shitcunts.
>>54768917
>will run current vidya on ultra for that price.
Yeah sure if you like playing on 1024x768 you fucking idiot.
>>54768220
>Nividia
The only excuse I need for not buying that is that I'm not retarded.

3 years even lower cost!!!!
>>54769980
>why buy anything now, it'll cost less next year
>why buy anything now, it'll be practically free in 5 years time
lol seriously?
>>54769220
No, you could easily build a nice 1440p gay men machine with a 390 and an i5 for the same price as a single 1080.
>>54768468
You should probably just move to somewhere better, because the actual vacancy rate hasn't changed much nationally for nearly ten years. So it's probably just where you live. Or you're just a terrible person. Either/or.

Only one in stock.
>>54770919
So?
>>54768220
Whats your excuse to not buy the 1080Ti instead.
I'll possibly buy the 1070 because my 780Ti lacks VRAM for 4K

you don't have a minimal salr given by the gouv ?
where do you live ?
do you need help ?
>>54769823
Got one today too. Ignore the salt, friendo. They're just mad they can't afford the substandard card we just bought.
I've been without a gpu for quite some time and I wanted to get one before the summer semester gets too awful.
I am disappointed that I paid the premium and some (most likely better) aftermarket cards have already been announced to be released like next Friday.

i don't bother with bleeding edge hardware. it's an endless treadmill of super expensive parts.
the only reason you're buying bleeding edge over 'enthusiast' is to get THE top performance in every new game. but as soon as a new piece of hardware comes out, yours is objectively no longer bleeding edge. so you have to keep going if you want to maintain that status.
enthusiast hardware maintains its place as "top X%" for a reasonable amount of time. you can upgrade whenever you find that it's reasonable and affordable.
>>54773298
Ohio. I make 10/hr. It could be worse but the only reason I can afford to live on my own is because I have a room mate I share an apartment with. I dont think I qualify for any government shit. I want to get into IT but certs are expensive and I have no relevant experience so I kinda need them
All i do is play dota and TTT, don't really care about new AAA games.
>Did you play the new boring Ubisoft game at 4K 60FPS?
>Yeah, it was a pretty lame game. It was worth spending $5000 on my 'rig' so I could experience mediocrity without screen tearing.
