If I had to buy a card today and I wanted to buy a card from EVGA...KnightRid wrote:So the - EVGA GeForce GTX 980 04G-P4-2983-KR 4GB SC GAMING w/ACX 2.0, 26% Cooler and 36% Quieter Cooling Graphics Card - is $480 right now from newegg and amazon so would it be more worthwhile to spend the extra $80 or is the standard 980 not that much better?
Spending $300+ on a video card isn't cheap by any means! The gamer 'sweet spot' for NVIDIA and AMD is the coveted $199 price point, so you are well beyond that!KnightRid wrote:I am just outside the market for a new GPU as my gtx660 is getting a bit long in the tooth (still plays everything I have thrown at it but some I have to lower the graphics) and was turned off by the 970 reports of the memory fiasco for a while. Maybe I will hold out till we hear word of Pascal (my lord I learned Pascal when I was in high school...I am so old) and see what the price/performance is and what it does to the pricing on the 970 and 980 line.
That $325 price point is pretty good but would love to see it drop cause I am cheap![]()
Thanx Nate!
