Newegg 15% off some videocards... GTX 780 - $270, R9-290 $255

just once id like to click on a newegg link that wasnt false advertisement by the op. :D
 
^^^ He means, unless this was some kind of 1hr special, NONE of the prices OP listed are even CLOSE to what Newegg is currently showing....:eek:
 
Prices showing up fine for me.
$517 * 0.85 = $439.45 - $30 = $409.45.
$494 * 0.85 = $419.89 - $30 = $389.89 >> Probably the largest variation ($10) - oh noooes :p
$354 * 0.85 = $300.89 - $30 = $270.89
 
Do you guys have trouble doing math or something? Take the advertised price ($300 for the 290), multiply by 0.85 (300 * .85 = 255). Add taxes if you need to. Was that so hard? 0.85 = 85% of the price since 15% off is 100% - 15%. Need me to hold your hands a bit more or are we good here? :D

Um did you use the 15% off code right there on the products page as they are exactly the prices he listed when I check now.
 
Hot prices on those. Cheap and strong SLI 780 setup for anyone that doesn't want to play the 970/980 stock game.

If I have a i5-4570 @ stock, will a 780SLI setup work with a corsair HX 750w power supply?

Guys: Add to cart & add the green code. Should show up as I mention. I didn't add every one to cart, I multiplied price by 0.85 :)
 
Some nice prices in there, although I am pretty sure Newegg jacked up the prices on those 780Ti to come to the same effective prices with that 15% discount. They were the same price last week without having to use the code.

As for the HX 750W being enough for 2x780, I think it would be close. Figure the 780s draw up to 250W max, that leaves another 250W or so for the rest of your system. For an LGA1150 board should be fine unless you have tons of mechanical drives and peripherals running off it. You will be near peak load however, which is not somewhere I'd want to be with a PSU for long periods of time.

Do you have a Kill-A-Watt handy? I'd check to see what load power is under Heaven or 3DMark or an intensive game bench like Metro LL or Crysis 3 and see what its pulling from the wall. Less than 500W and you should fine.
 
That seems like a good deal on the Gigabyte 290. The reviews for that particular card are mixed though. Anyone here have one? Anything you can report?

Should be fine. I've got an i7-3770K currently at stock with two Asus Direct CU 780's all on a Seasonic X750. No problems at all.

Your HX has 62A on the 12V rail, my X750 has 62A, as well.
