I almost bought that card with the intent to put an accelero iv on it. Would have come in at $700 tho, didn't make sense when the custom cooled cards are like $720. Still pissed at myself for not jumping on the xlr8 card when it was $639.
Sold my 2 year old 295x2 that I paid $500 for on eBay, sold for $885. Even after PayPal and eBay fees I'll clear enough to buy a 1080ti. Might just hold off and see what Vega brings also.
