Been using this one for a year now, it's great for the price. The only downsides are very infrequent flicker around 75Hz/fps when using Adaptive Sync, and black-level smearing even on the Strong Overdrive setting. The curve is a little too pronounced IMO, and I think 1800R would've been perfect.

Annnd sold! Been salivating over the Radeon deals lately, but this is just as good and gives me access to DLSS. Coming from a 1650 Super.

Allow me to dig this thread up... See if anyone still comes here :) IDK about y'all but I am HYPED https://www.crytek.com/news/crytek-announces-crysis-remastered

I will definitely be purchasing a base PS4 when the price drops below $200 for a decent bundle. About 5 exclusives I just HAVE to play at some point.

Just a correction: Crysis was one of the first games WITH Ambient Occlusion. There isn't an option to enable or disable it in the settings, but it is there on High and Very High. You can tweak its darkness and radius with cvars.

Adaptive Vsync doesn't always work as well as Nvidia advertises. Basically, if there's any hint that the next few frames could possibly drop below 60fps, the driver will switch Vsync off to avoid a possible stutter, and you'll see tearing. You should be good to go with a GTX 1080 on a 60Hz...

MalwareBytes and Avast! have done great for me on Windows 7. Windows Defender and MBAM work great for me on Windows 10. Advanced System Care package is nice, but performance improvements are undetectable to me - and I don't trust software from China... Piriform's tools are best IMO.

Cmonnnnnnnn Zotac - release it at $299 or less!

Sooo, wait for the v3? I'd love one of these in the red flavor for gaming.

See if you can find an R9 290 with an aftermarket cooler, and if not, I'd wait for the GTX 960 Ti
