I jumped from a 670 to a 1050ti, only cost me 200 bucks. Worth every penny, I've had hours and hours of enjoyment from it so far.
I've spent 200 bucks on dates before, just to have to sit across a table from chicks that made no effort to talk or anything. Fucking waste of money, and much more importantly, my time.

LOL. women are too expensive for my liking.

HALF your monthly salary. LMAO!!!!
most cucks I know just give their salary to their wife and let her chose "what's best" for the family, which usually means he gets $4 for lunch because "we have to save for the kids" followed by shopping for new boots for her.

agreed. all women who do this use the excuse of "kids" and that she's the homemaker so she'll take care of bills and buy food for kids. still, dumbest shit i ever heard. never met one women whose impressed me with her financial savvy.
[–]CeleritySteam4 points5 points6 points 8 years ago (11 children) | Copy Link
1070 or even 1060 is very respectable. I dual wield 1080 tis though and they're still cheaper than a month of Thot Tax(tm).
[–]freezingsama1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Yep, can't believe how the 1060 has pulled me through so far. I've been out of the loop for quite some time and man, technology is amazing.
[–]ShrunkenHed-1 points0 points1 point 8 years ago (9 children) | Copy Link
Why? You can't possibly use it and you're basically running 2 laundry machines for nothing. I mean, you're free to be an idiot, but I wouldn't celebrate that.
[–]CeleritySteam1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago* (8 children) | Copy Link
Says who? Who says I can't use it? "Running 2 laundry machines for nothing" meaning electricity costs? Sure, I'll lament that 0.00 extra electric bill. Please, explain how I, as a strong, independent man am an idiot for spending 1,600 of my own money on whatever the fuck I please? I eagerly await your response.
Edit: You are way off. Washing machines are 500+ watts each. TIs are about half that maybe at full load?
[–]eRoNNN0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Because you can run every game at max settings with just a single regular 1080.
[–]CeleritySteam0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Ok, that's a better argument. But max settings, 60 frames, 4K resolution? I don't think so. I'm not even sure a 1080 TI can by itself.
I'm not just a gamer though so no graphics card purchase will ever be wasted for me.
[–]ShrunkenHed-1 points0 points1 point 8 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link
You're an idiot because I think you're an idiot that you uselessly waste. You're free to do it, but I'm free to think you a strong, independent idiot.
shrug
I don't need to defend it and you don't need to invalidate it.
[–]CeleritySteam1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
Uselessly waste what, and how? You are both mathematically wrong in a number of ways, factually wrong in that absolutely nothing is wasted, and at the end of the day if I want 2 high end gaming cards in my gaming PC then that is what I will get.
But hey, keep hamstering out nonsensical claims and insults if it makes you feel any better.
Console peasant.

A man who works for his money can spend it as he pleases, without having to justify it.
That said, after a whole year my new build still has no discrete GPU. I refuse to pay for overpriced parts like video cards are right now. I have been looking for a 1050 ti and since Xmas they are up to $180. Should be around $100 by now I reckon.
[–]CeleritySteam0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
I see them for around 160. That doesn't seem overpriced by much, a normal 1050 is 120 and a 1060 should be 250 but is actually 300. Gamers are generally safe from overpriced GPUs since NVIDIA is generally better for gaming and worse for mining with a few exceptions, also only the mid and high end cards get price gouged.
[–]AboutNinthAccount0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
I got an AMD like r 270. It's ok. I play a lot of Arma 3.
Yeah, AMD cards work, just generally at a higher price and/or power point than comparable NVIDIA performance. If your video card had the word "hundred" or "hundreds" in the price when you bought it and it's less than 3 years old it's most likely fine for 1080p gaming. If cheaper or older you might still be ok.

I picked up a 1080ti strix from microcenter couple months ago thanks to mgtow
[–]AzoGreave1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
It's the 1080 that's around ~500-520 dollars. 1070 is around 400.
[–]CeleritySteam1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Old meme, the price dropped a lot.
[–]emoninja950 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
? The 1070 is $460 on amazon
Price gouging. It was 400 before they all got bought.
[–]robowriter0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Great card and NVIDIA stock a gift that keeps on giving.
[+][deleted] 8 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
1070 is a good card. What is your budget for the entire build?
[+][deleted] 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
So 800 dollars US, a 1070 would cost over half that so not recommended. I'd go for a 1060 and a mid range CPU for 400-500 and then spend the rest on high quality low feature low cost parts.

Built a new PC for my present to me.
Cosmos C700p
ASUS Maximus X AC
i7-8700k
32G G.Skill Trident RGB DDR4-3200
EVGA GTX 1080 SC
Samsung EVO PRO M.2 SSD 512GB
Samsung 4Tb 7200rpm data drive
Watercooled the CPU & GPU
EVGA 850W Titanium PSU

This PC is super quiet, fast as hell and does everything I need it to do. Is it over kill, perhaps but I enjoy it :)
[–]Griever1140 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Its painful how true.
Forgot to mention that EVGa does a step up program where the encourage you to get ride of the outdated model and replace it with the hotter, faster and better new model.

Ayeee I just got this card, and this baby is a beast. I got it mining in the off hours too, so not only does it run pubg, it's getting daddy that money. My chick bad.
[–]CadSoft0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I bought a 1070 and I dont even play games LOL. Still a better investment.
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Christ $520? I could probably get a next gen Volta 1180 for $100 more than that in a few months.

PS4 > PC
[–]CeleritySteam5 points6 points7 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
A console is basically a low end PC with hamstrung features at the same price as a low end PC without such restrictions.
