More cfm going to where it is needed is better than dual fans at lower cfm going nowhere. So depends on where the air is going to be directed.

I just can't wait to find out the setting for the game. As bad as it sounds, that will determine if I buy the game or not.

Thanks for the responses, I will probably just grab a 4tb now and if it isn't enough in the future grab another and run it as a separate drive.

Already have an SSD for boot and the games I play the most, I was just looking to upgrade my 1tb bulk storage drive and potentially raid it in the future.

I think this is the best answer. Considering the fact I would have to buy waterblocks for my cards that $550 980ti I bought was more like $400 so I took it. Still waiting for the new cards to drop though.

So you believe the benefits of raid is not worth the hassle in a desktop application?

What would you recommend then? These would be my drives for bulk game storage. Figured Raid 0 would give me a little performance boost. Since there will be no critical data on the drives I did not figure it would be a big deal if one of the drives did go.

I do not disagree on the Nvidia part. I picked up a 980 ti now (because it is the best now) so I can be patient to wait for the polaris launch instead of picking up pascal at launch. Now for async compute, thats a different story and there are large threads on this already. I did not recommend...

You just seem tired of gaming. For me when I get like that, I just play Counter strike. I do not care about the game as much, it just brings out my competitive nature in me and I enjoy competing.

I was going to play some of the Division, My gtx 680 died last week so I am going to play the division to break in my 980ti.

Alright that is good to know, I know apple has been known for dropping the ball on support for these things. You have any experience with windows 10 via bootcamp?

Only RMA experience I had was with an XFX black edition 9800 gtx+. All I can say was it was the easiest RMA process for a PC component I have ever had. I wish XFX still did Nvidia cards, I loved using XFX

Thanks, that is exactly what I was hoping for. Back when I used raid a lot more than I do now, I seem to have remembered doing this. The only way I would swap back is a drive failure, but in that case my data is more or less gone anyway. Thanks again.

If you can find a good deal on a 980ti I say go for it. I found a 980ti with a waterblock and backplate for $550. The way I see it the 980ti will not be outperformed by a 1070 (or whatever it will be called) and realistically the 980ti will be slightly faster. So I got a 980ti now at a $50...

On a console I do not mind seeing 30 fps I just want the visual fidelity. I am not as competitive on a console and just want it to look as good as it can. For ultra performance in games I use my computer. On the few games I can't get on my PC i want them to look as good as possible and do not...
