    EVGA RTX 3090 FTW3 Ultra - $1699 Brand New

    Too late I jumped on the deal for a 6900 XT last week for $1029 for the Sapphire Nitro+ SE I have lots of time this summer to play stuff but in the fall I won't have nearly as much free time so I kind of had this now or never sensation. As to the 1080 I have to say it did a great job overall...

    EVGA RTX 3090 FTW3 Ultra - $1699 Brand New

    Normally I would agree with you but I have been waiting to get my hands on a GPU since late 2020. My EVGA que has still not come up yet! Tired of waiting. I want a summer filled with large FPS increases from my aging warrior GTX 1080. 😁 Oh and if one looks at my profile, the rest is getting...

    A few months ago I had a 3080ti in the cart for $1850 shipped. Before that I had a lesser 6900XT than this one in the cart for 1750 shipped. I am glad I waited. I finally jumped on this one. Aiming for a late June build. Will pair this 6900XT with my Intel OCd 6700k @ 4.85 GHZ just for shits...

    So Evga wants me to remove myself from the que for the regular 3080 or the 3080 ti so I can add this one since it now says only 2 cards can be in the que. So a few GB more memory for hundreds more bucks and I lose my position in line which I have been in since the end of 2020?

    Yeah I am lucky in that I don't have any compelling reason right now. If something that is dear to me, like Witcher 3, was releasing I would be where you are. What I decided to do is look at my Steam library. I have been collecting on sale titles for like 12 years. I have 200 games in the...

    [H] Stock Alerts, Tips & Tears for Nvidia, AMD, Intel, PS5, XBOX

    I know I haven't. I'm not paying that much for 3070. Not many people I know would either, not if its just used for gaming. People who think that all this is the new pricing normal are not thinking about how this will effect PC gaming long term. For example, for AAA console titles that get ported...

    Got my Westinghouse LVM-37W3 37" 1080p display today!

    It was nice to read this. I wonder how many people are still using it? I used mine as my main monitor from 2007- Dec 2013. Then it was a TV for my Dad till 2016 when it finally bought it due to a fall 😢 Best monitor I had ever owned till my curved ultra wide 34" that I use now. I even went and...

    All this has done is put a damper on my enthusiasm for this entire hobby. For the first time since the late 90s I've just about had it. I never thought that this would happen but this whole thing just stinks.

    Its a strange feeling. On one hand I don't like over paying for anything. On the other hand if you wait or hesitate even for a minute its OOS again. I had the 3090 in the cart and then started thinking about paying $1500 for playing PC games....By the time I hit "checkout" it was OOS again.

    Would $150 over MSRP be expected to last for a long time? Meaning if I waited till March or April is supply issues supposed to ease and the price go down? Or is this how things will last for a long time.

    ASUS ROG STRIX RX Vega 56 O8G GAMING Review

    Another great review of an obviously good video card. I feel bad though since you guys put lots of effort into your reviews of these cards and yet (most) of us would never go anywhere near this for a build. Strange times for hardware enthusiasts.

    EVGA Step Up Get the 1080 Founders Edition vs ACX 3.0 Whats best?

    I stepped up to the ACX 3.0 for $38.00 ;) I would take that route. Like has been said unless you have a case where you feel you need to vent air out the back? Go with the ACX as its a much better cooling option. In fact I am very happy to have seen it! I was almost certain we would be stuck...
