Next line are probably going to be a little short for maxed 4K. Gonna wait until '17-18 for my glorious DDR4K build.

Already have a 980 and 4790k anyway.
And the 980 is still factory.

Feels good to not have to worry about spending $500-600 every two years to not have to worry about tweaking games to get decent performance. It works out to less than a dollar a day and I bet a lot of you fatasses spend more than that on soda pop.

Waitfaggery is a game you can't win.

No sooner will nvidia drop their cards then you'll have retards braying about waiting for amd's cards. And as soon as they drop the cycle continues.

>b-b-but this time is different!

That's what they said about the fury and skylake

>>322125603

Next year's 14nm HBM 2.0 cards should be a significant jump in performance, but I agree, the waiting game is stupid and unwinnable.

But then people will just say the same thing in 2017. It never ends, you know. But whatever, whenever dawg.
So long as it's nothing from Nvidia that hasn't been on the market for at least a year.
>>
>>322126059
Wow. I think my Ti cost as much.
>>
>>322126486
Ti is only super card that shit is like 4cards in one
The Ti is more stable than that for older games

>>322122351

other than VR i don't see a reason to upgrade again.
>>
>>322122351
I bought a 970 in 2014 and will probably go AMD next gen since I can already tell Nvidia is going to pull shit with VR and because my ultrawide is freesync which Nvidia doesn't support(big surprise)

Pascal is going to be a small improvement over the 900 series just watch.

How do you manage with a factory 980?

Mine runs at 1500mhz core and I hit as low as 30FPS with Witcher 3 maxed out
>>
What are the chances that when nvidia release their cards with HBM2 that it'll be a range of cards and not just a single flagship card like AMD did with the fury? I wanna get rid of my card but I don't want to spend £500.

>>322126973
Tbh I'm not sure but if you have a mo bo that has more than one slot maybe two 970s would be better

What the fuck happened to graphics?
>>
>>322124059
That's not how RAM works motherfucker
>>
>>322127376

You might get better raw numbers with SLI 970s, but SLI in general sucks and feels shitty due to microstuttering and bad frametimes. It's always better to go single card.

i dont understand you poor pieces of shit

there is no point in waiting unless you know a card is coming out in maybe a month

>buy a 980 ti in november for £540
>sell it second hand when new ones come out mid 2016 for at least £400

are you telling me you dont earn enough in 6 months to make up the difference for a new card
>>
>>322124059
This is kind of true but you'll never, ever get any kind of disk based memory that's even remotely as fast or low latency as RAM.
