PARTS PREFERENCES: Nothing really; looking for a GPU that pairs well with the rest of my rig and that i dont need to upgrade atleast for ~5 years.
OVERCLOCKING: No SLI OR CROSSFIRE: No
MONITOR RESOLUTION: 1920x1080
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: I recently upgraded the rest of my rig to the specs listed above. My 980Ti is 6 years old and may give out sometime soon. The only vendor selling non-scalp prices of GPUs in India has wait times of 6mths - 1 year, so I want to put myself in the queue for a GPU so that I can get one hopefully before my 980Ti dies.
