    Build Review - Gaming PC

    Below is the build I'm planning to finalize tomorrow. Just wanted to throw it out there to see if there are any strong objections to components. Probably where I feel least strongly is the cooler. Additionally, I was thinking of swapping the H440 for a Phantom 630 so if anyone has...

    Another 970 vs 980

    Great. Thanks for the quick replies. Seems like a 970 is finally in stock, so I'll probably pull the trigger tonight. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125684&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=6202798&SID=

    Another 970 vs 980

    I've had some time to go back and forth with this since they both seem to be sold out everywhere... I've decided to get either a 970 or 980 now, and potentially add a second down the road. My uses: Currently, I have 2 1080 monitors, so I will just be gaming on one and a single card of either...

    I like where this is going. I'll do a little more research on SLI vs single card based on what I want to do and in case I ever upgrade monitors to better resolutions.

    Gaming PC, ~$2200 budget

    i don't have a strict timeline at all. I could pull the trigger tomorrow or wait a few months. Do you (or anyone) think the 900s will drive the price of the 780s down or should I just get a 900 series?

    Gaming PC, ~$2200 budget

    So it's time for a new computer and I'm trying to finalize my build. I like to go a little overkill to ensure capabilities over a few years so I am not looking for this to match today's needs. The main performance needs of the computer will be higher end games (watch dogs, destiny, etc.) and...
