So this is more of a "the older GPUs have come down in price enough for me to buy" thread than anything else.
And besides that my R9-390 is still handling everything I play pretty well.
I found these cards for sale for what I deemed a good price so I bought them for some older systems.
2x Nvidia GTX295 - $42 a piece. ($500 MSRP per card when new)
2x ATI Radeon HD5970 - $70 a piece. ($600 MSRP per card when new)
I wanted those setups back when they were new but not only did I not have the money, I wouldn't have paid that much for a setup.
Gonna have me some Quad GPU fun. Closest I ever came before this was a couple of refurb 4870x2 cards I bought and one of them ended up being DOA :-(
