    For $200 can I do any better than dual 660ti s?

    I guess it depends on resolution. http://www.overclockersclub.com/reviews/powercolor_radeon_hd_7870_myst_edition_crossfire/4.htm But no NOT complete FAKE as you see the 660ti sli fall well behind 7870 Myst cards at triple monitor resolution. And no where in his post did he mention a single...

    For $200 can I do any better than dual 660ti s?

    I remember reading the 192bit bandwidth becomes an issue with SLI. If you are talking Nvida only then there probably isn't anything better in that price range. If you included AMD I have seen used 7950s for the $100 to $110 range each. That would be better I believe.

    Are you running the latest bios for your motherboard?

    SLI or new card?

    No point in going SLI. 1GB of vram probably isn't enough these days. Sell the 560ti. As the guy above me said AMD cards are dirt cheap right now. Especially used 7950s, 7970s, 290s and 290xs. 7970s might be the sweet spot as I've seen them go for as little as $125. You can find used 290s...

    Does Gigabyte actually have an email address they will respond from?

    Thanks for the reply but that seems to be about Galaxy. I'm talking about Gigabyte.

    Does Gigabyte actually have an email address they will respond from?

    Got back a card that I rma'ed and nothing was done to fix it. I've tried emailing them 3 times in a span of 10 days with no response. Twice to [email protected] Once to [email protected] Absolutely the worse rma experience I've ever had. It makes Asus look like the gold standard.

    This mining war between companies is going to cost us

    You should do more research before you spout a bunch of crap. Dogecoin has several advantage over Bitcoin for use as an actual currency especially small purchases where I see the true value of crypto (for large purchases I don't see people giving up chargeback, price protection and cashback...

    Should Amazon, etc. be against the rules?

    lol This is only a serious issue if you are naive or an idiot. Use a CC with amazon payments. Its not rocket scientology. Its not HF or anyone else's job to look out for your money. As the saying goes "a fool and his money are soon parted". If you don't like the seller's terms move along or...

    GTX 660 Ti ==> GTX 670

    Depends on the cost. But I probably wouldn't pay more then $20-$25 since the performance increase is only around 15%.

    2-5fps difference between 760 and 770

    Unless I'm mistaken your comparing a gtx 760 with a max overclock to a stock gtx 770. If you don't see the logic flaw in that then there's not much for me to say. Stock vs stock a gtx 770 is roughly 20% faster then a gtx 760.

    Is anyone here actually buying the inflated 290(x) custom cards?

    So you would pay $100 more for a better cooler when you can buy a better cooler and put it on a reference card for $60?

    Z87-A Question

    Pretty sure the 3rd slot is only good for 2x mode. Usually only the really expensive boards allow you to switch the lanes. Anyway you would need a 8 slot case to use that 3rd slot.

    r9 290 for $399

    Are people still getting unlocked cards or was it just the first batch?

    Waiting really stinks

    If money is tight why even bother with a top tier card? You're running 1080p anyway right? I'd just get a gtx 680/gtx 770 for $230 to $280 off the F/S forums. Even a gtx 680 is a noticeable 45% to 48% performance boost over what you have. Save the $300 to $400 to see what mantle or g-sync...
