Man that looks awesome!

This deal got a little better. Additional $20 off if buying with PayPal using coupon code PP2016BTS. $350 for a 980ti ain't bad!

Last night I played h1z1 and I was getting like 120fps on 4k ultra settings. It was actually using SLI! I was blown away. However it didn't last long, after changing some settings to increase draw distance I was only getting 45fps, much like a single 980ti. Well I started checking temps and my...

Haha, funny enough I am actually considering performance for the money. Can't sell the 960 as it is built into the Alpha. Selling a 980ti would probably get me $300 and the 1080 would be around $700 after tax. So I am looking at $300 more than my SLI setup and I still need a card for the...

So I have somewhat of a dilemma when it comes to my current gaming setup(s). I have two gamings rigs right now. One will be hooked up to my 4k TV for living room 4k gaming and the other will be in my office for better mouse and keyboard gaming. Really the only games I play on mouse and keyboard...

Yeah MSAA is crazy taxing. You don't by any chance have The Witcher 3? Curious what settings you run and the frames you get.

So you are getting over 60fps @ 4k on GTA V with absolutely everything maxed out? I am getting between 49 and 68fps on the built in benchmark tool with everything maxed at 4k. Here is a copy of my log: Frames Per Second (Higher is better) Min, Max, Avg Pass 0, 6.584587, 71.162132, 57.439205...

Yeah I was hoping that wasn't the answer. Passed up some good deals this week. On the bright side I did pick up 12-15fps on GTA V.

What in my system do you think is the bottleneck? I was honestly thinking I wouldn't have a bottleneck after reading here about the x5650. My CPU usage is so low during gaming. What do you think of jumping to 1151?

Hey Guys, I just got done updating my rig a little with another 980ti and a new power supply. I upgraded my setup with playing Witcher 3 in 4k in mind. I played it some with 1 980ti settings maxed at 4k and I would get around 30fps. I saw YouTube videos though of people getting 50+ FPS so I...

Dang, $15 shipping hurts. Had the card in my cart and decided to go with MSI. Cards wont aesthetically match but the deal better. MSI GeForce GTX 980TI 6GD5T OC-Newegg.com

No it's $389 including the rebate. Price at checkout is more.

I'm thinking of picking up another 980ti to run in SLI for better 4k experience. The last time I ran SLI was in the Crysis days and it wasn't ideal :/ so I am not too up to date. Has the experience improved? I have the EVGA version of the 980ti and if I do run sli I would like for my cards...

Thanks for the reply! The graphics amplifier would be used in conjunction with my Alpha mostly at home on my 4k TV. The "coolness" of the amplifier and alpha setup is that when I do want to go to a lan or travel I have a very capable box with a gtx 960 in it ready to go. I would leave the...

Bump: Opinions on performance of a i7-6700T vs my x5650 @4.0ghz? Wondering if going from my X5650 @4.0ghz and 980ti to Alpha with i7-6700t and 980ti via graphics amplifier would be a downgrade. Thinking the Alpha and Amplifier might be the way to go if the CPU wont bottleneck me in the...
