I know what i'm getting.

 

[Krakn3Dfx]

Need to see how the $329 version attacks up against my current 770. Should probably sit this round out though.

 

[GrizzNKev]

Feels like just yesterday I was dropping mad cash for a 9800 GTX.

Time flies.

 

[~Kinggi~]

Need to see how the $329 version attacks up against my current 770. Should probably sit this round out though.

Im curious about physical size of the card. I have a zotac 770 2gb in a small form factor case on my TV and it is at the absolute size limit. Anything bigger in dimensions wont fit, so if this is the same size or smaller i might actually get it.

 

[Lonely1]

DX12 support!?

 

[ThoughtsOfSpeaking]

How do you reckon these will effect prices of the 780ti?

 

[EmptySpace]

549?

nvidia being nvidia, i see. they're trying to milk that hardware before cloud gaming eventually takes over.

 

[Dark_AnNiaLatOr]

DX12 support!?

Yes.

 

[Sorcerer Supreme]

Should I upgrade to a 970 from a 670?

 

[DirgeExtinction]

Should be a nice upgrade for my 660. Anyone know what a Gigabyte 2GB GTX 660 would go for used?

 

[Smushroomed]

depends on the games you play and what resolution

 

[The Llama]

Dat $220 gap.

 

[vilmer_]

No thanks Nvidia.

 

[Tommy DJ]

What the fuck $800 AUD for the GTX980 on PCCG.

 

[DarkChronic]

570 to a 970. Let's do this!!

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Need to see how the $329 version attacks up against my current 770. Should probably sit this round out though.

I'm in the same boat. Might sell my 4GB 770 to cover the cost if the difference is good enough.

 

[georgc]

Can't wait to get the 980 the last video card I bought was a ATI Diamond 9800. Seems fitting that I get the 980

 

[Hip Hop]

Should I upgrade to a 970 from a 670?

I would like to know this as well. im in the 670 camp righ now.

 

[Brawndo Addict]

$550? Oh Nvidia, never change.

 

[TeRey09]

The 650m in my Macbook to a 970 in a gaming rig should be a good upgrade huh?

 

[Rhaknar]

so... how do these usually work in euros? the usual "$=€ lol" bullshit?

I remember buying my GTX580 for 500€ back in the day but I have no idea how much it was in dollars

 

[BrokenEchelon]

560ti to 970.

Oh lawd.

 

[Brawndo Addict]

so... how do these usually work in euros? the usual "$=€ lol" bullshit?

I remember buying my GTX580 for 500€ back in the day but I have no idea how much it was in dollars

550 USD = 425 Euros

330 USD = 255 Euros

 

[Thoraxes]

I can build my new rig now. Fuck yeah. Haswell-E and DDR4 here we come!

Upgrading from a 460 lol

 

[RS4-]

560ti to 970.

Oh lawd.

I'm still on a 6950!

 

[HomerSimpson-Man]

so... how do these usually work in euros? the usual "$=€ lol" bullshit?

I remember buying my GTX580 for 500€ back in the day but I have no idea how much it was in dollars

That's over $800 for the GTX580! Holy crap!

 

[Rhaknar]

550 USD = 425 Euros

330 USD = 255 Euros

you misunderstood my question, I meant how much do these go for in european markets / countries that use euros, not how much $550 is in €

No chance, it'll be 1:1.

my fellow european knows what I meant so they usually do 1:1 then experte? well fuck...

Spoiler

still buying a 980 with my new rig

 

[King_Moc]

The 970's benchmarks look phenomenal for the price. Very tempted to upgrade my 670 for it.

[derExperte]

The jump from my 660 to a 970 is much bigger than I expected. Yeah, I know what I'm buying today.

550 USD = 425 Euros

330 USD = 255 Euros

No chance, it'll be 1:1.

 

[dwix]

560ti to 970.

Oh lawd.

Same here!

 

[DizzyCaffeine]

Any point in going from a 7970 to one of these? I wanna try an Nvidia card after owning nothing but AMD.

 

[Chuck]

Maxwell's silver video card...


<.<

 

[Mozz-eyes]

I'm rocking a 2gb 660ti atm.

Worth the upgrade to the 970, you guys reckon?

 

[Brawndo Addict]

you misunderstood my question, I meant how much do these go for in european markets / countries that use euros, not how much $550 is in &#8364;

Sorry, quickly read and assumed this was a cross-national, how much is that in my currency question. Yeah, I have no clue how much it will be sold for in the Euro market.

 

[Inumbris]

What the fuck $800 AUD for the GTX980 on PCCG.

Don't worry, that always happens; it'll come down right quickly. I'd suggest you wait for the non-reference cards anyway.

I can't wait to go from my single 670 to dual 980's with those Gigabyte Triforce coolers *drools*

 

[bbd23]

Looks like my 7870 is getting upgraded to a 970

 

[Rhaknar]

its all good

well...except for us europeans

 

[Trago]

560ti to 970.

Oh lawd.

We're in the same boat.

 

[Snapshot King]

Any point in going from a 7970 to one of these? I wanna try an Nvidia card after owning nothing but AMD.

Same boat here. If it's a worthwhile upgrade I'd love to get away from AMDs shit drivers.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

I really want the 980, but I may get an EVGA SC version with the better cooler and put it above or at 980's clocks.

I'm going from a 680 to the 970.

 

[gigantor21]

Looks like my 7870 is getting upgraded to a 970

That's what I have, and that's what I'm thinking. It about doubles the performance at 1080p for just over $300.

 

[mugwhump]

Aaaaaargh, I just bought a 290 from ncix on like Sept. 1

Think I can get a return or exchange somehow?

 

[Rentahamster]

So uhhh, when is this going on sale?

 

[Piercedveil]

I need a 970 in my life but I just got my 760 like 14 months ago I really should hold off.

 

[TheVampire]

Only 4GB of VRAM?

Not enough.

I've seen my modded Skyrim hit around 5.5GB VRAM usage.

Guess I'll stick with my Titan.

 

[tmtyf]

would this be strong enough for 1440p goodness? my 680 4gb cant hold up to max settings 60fps

 

[tbhysgb]

I was satisfied with my 670 too....that 970 looks great.

 

[grkazan12]

Looking for a new card, so would would upgrading from a 570 to a 980 be huge?

 

[Trickster]

ati 7850 -> GTX 970

Should be a decent upgrade

 

[jabuseika]

That GTX 970 is mine.
