    Oldest CPU pairing with a 1070/1080 GTX?

    I'm just shocked that despite the obvious issue with being bottlenecked, the old dog put up close to 9300 on 3dmark11. When I finally put together my 6700K system, it will be nice to see that score skyrocket.

    Oldest CPU pairing with a 1070/1080 GTX?

    You obviously read the part where I said I had a Q9550. Did you just purposely NOT read the part where I already have a 1070 GTX and that it will be placed in a newly built system later this summer?

    Oldest CPU pairing with a 1070/1080 GTX?

    Appreciate the advice, but I didn't come here looking for it. OP asks whether anyone is pairing an older CPU to their new NVIDIA card.

    Oldest CPU pairing with a 1070/1080 GTX?

    Say what you will. But I only play one game right now and it has taken my fps from 50's to 120's at the same settings. At maxed settings I used to run in the low 20's fps and now it is running at 50-60 fps. The plan is to shift the R9 back into this system once I build my new one later this...

    Oldest CPU pairing with a 1070/1080 GTX?

    Is anyone pairing an older CPU to their newly purchased 1070 or 1080 GTX than in my case? (Q9550 from 2010) My system was built in 2007 and the motherboard is just as old. I started out with the Nvidia 8800 for 4 years before jumping over to the 5850 for 3 years. I used the R9 280 for 2 years...

    Zotac 980Ti AMP Omega $399.99 no rebate @ Newegg

    I was just about to bite on this card. Had it in the cart and was about to enter CC information when I thought I'd look to see if there were any 1070's in stock. Checked Amazon and they had one from Gigabyte that's in stock on the 10th for just $30 more than this 980 Ti. Hope I made the right...

    Laser printer suggestions?

    I bought this two Black Fridays ago to use at work for something way too cheap like $79. I like it better than the $500 HP I have at home.

    The Humble Capcom Super Turbo HD Remix Rebundle

    Came here to say this. Hopefully they'll put in SF or maybe even puzzle fighter!

    EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti FTW $475 AR @ Micro Center (online/B&M)

    With them touting their 1070 as a Titan & 980 Ti beater for less than $400, this card is much less tempting. $400 and I'd buy it right away.

    Galaxy S7 / S7 Edge

    Appreciate the replies silent-circuit. I woke up dejected that I was not going to have my phone all day. Mentioned to my wife that if she could called the Samsung number that Verizon provided for me on the tech call last night (what a waste of 2 hours), I'd greatly appreciate it. She calls me...

    Galaxy S7 / S7 Edge

    Trying hard not to. Been on with tech support for last 40 minutes and they pretty much have me waiting around for five minutes at a time after I press certain buttons to see if it leaves the screen (it doesn't).

    Galaxy S7 / S7 Edge

    So I updated the phone tonight. After 15 minutes of progress bar movement, the phone resets itself and now decides to not leave the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Boot screen. Booting in Safe mode doesn't do anything, nor does the USB debug mode. Disappointed and sad.
