Nothing much, kinda tired. Just had ice cream. You?

Hi

>using the smiley with a carat nose

>10.5 GB

>founders edition

3.5/4 x 100% = 87.5%

11GB x 87.5% = 9.625GB

Shove it up your ass.

Winfag.

I've got a g4560 @ 4.5Ghz stable, you think the 1080ti would be bottlenecked?

>Not getting a cheaper 1080

Fucking idiot.

Thanks for giving nGreedia your shekles for overpriced hardware.

>buying a 1080ti when there are literally NO good games out that demand it

pc gaming is dead

Back to wccftech

but you can literally mine bitcoins and make your own games with it

those things are beasts at data analysis and much cheaper than a quadro

>no good games
>pc gaming is dead

look at me guys, I'm retarded! I have a 720p 30hz monitor and am mad that my shitty computer costs less than op's gpu!

explain

it has 11 GB not 12

fuck you

how did you get one? been trying for days

>retarded gaymer
fuck off back to and stay there.

pre-ordered one off of their website on March 3rd the minute it was available, downside being Im not sure if it came with a free game because i was so early

>Founder's Edition

Couldn't you have waited a little longer?

But the Nvidia box/card looks better

>fucking 2017
>buying a reference card

For fuck's sake!

that's what I am

still more than any amd shit

With a reference you'll know itll work. Wont have to deal with asus bullshit customer service either

It's not like OP is going to use it for data analysis, hes just gonna play the same couple crappy games at 1440p and maybe 4k everyday.

lol fuck off you're probably just starting to grow up so all games seem boring to you. there are plenty of games and you need 1080 ti to play at 1440p 120+ fps max settings and you would need an even better gpu for proper 4k gaming

Coil whine has been a constant issue with Gtx cards since 9 series. I would waited for a week before buying it since I want to know which card has the ''lesser'' whine, from my experience all of my friends have coil whine on their 9 series cards and only friend who has 10xx series has a bit coil whine in his 1070 as well.

>pc gaming is dead

It really is. I have literally just finished playing Horizon on my ps4, great game with outstanding graphics, now I'm going back to Nioh since I hadn't finished that yet. Preloading nier on my pc right now but I might as well have just gotten that in my ps4 since it's just a multiplat. Then there is persona 5 next month for the ps4 as well and I still haven't played other stuff such as yakuza or gravity rush 2.

Meanwhile, the big pc releases of the year are
>

This was the last time I upgraded my pc. I quickly noticed that the only exciting thing about it is actually thinking about upgrade paths, designing the thing down, browsing for a nice looking case and then assembling stuff successfully and all that crap. Putting it into use, however, there's just nothing. I mean, I'm a lawyer, I don't need anything other than a laptop, yet here I am sitting in front of this huge worthless money pit. And let's be honest here, it's not like gaming is a worthwhile hobby, at least not anymore, the actual good games are so scarce nowadays. It simply isn't worth it investing so much into this shit.

It kills me inside everytime I see those people assembling those fucking retarded builds with custom loops, dual GPUs and whatnot for gaming and then they play Skyrim with a bunch of mods for 20 minutes and never again boots any other game ever.

Is this really the bullshit that you are telling yourself to try to distract from the fact you bought the very worst possible version of this GPU, which will effectivelly cancel all of its overclocking potential while making it sound like a jet engine no matter what?

come on it's not that bad

come on it's not that bad

>Might as well have gotten it on PS4
>Even though if square doesnt fuck up it'll run fluidly at 60 fps with anti-aliasing and the possibility of mods

I have a 4790k and a 970 and I have been building PC's since you were in diapers

PC gaming is dead and not innovative at all

>but muh VR

its shit mate

console gaming isn't better, consoles have some exclusive titles but it's all the same uninspired crap except on consoles you have 720p 30 fps low graphics q trash

no doubt, I haven't owned a console since dreamcast

gaming is just shit these days, period.

750 ti masterrace.

>pc gaming is dead
you're not wrong

> Using anything above 1080p
You will distort video with upscaling faggot since 99% of video sources are 1080p
unless you are a faggot that only cares about gayming which makes you a faggot
An R9 290 is still able to play Doom on Ultra on 1080p so no upgrade needed yet

I just fixed the fan on mine.

Works well with my GDM-FW900.

You could have gotten a switch for less than that piece alone, get with the times reatard

Nice card OP.

Sorry that there is over 40 poorfag jelly twats shitting on you from their amd trash.

>4790k and gtx 970
>claims experience yet matches a cpu that is way overpowered for the gpu
>inb4 muh vidya production
>inb4 muh workload

I'm old, depressed and everything is bad! Stop having fun!

>muh video
720p scales well to 1440p anyway and 1080p scales to 4k

So, founders edition. Am I missing something here, or are we really looking at the Kickstarter use of this word with a GPU that is literally manufactured, distributed and released globally on the same day or have I missed a class in marketing lingo?

to play one (1) shitty ass game at 720p 20-30 fps

>>pc gaming is dead
>It really is.
PC gaming is more popular than ever

4K is great for video production, and 5K is even better as you can have a native 4K preview window.

I use duel 4K displays and I'm a programmer, the extra real estate is awesome. I could never go back to 1080p.

>switch
I don't want a kids toy, holy shit you faggots on here

SO correct me if Im wrong but all resolutions pretty much scale into 8k with a clean integer scale correct? (240P, 480P, 720P ,1080P , 1440p , 4k)

"sure"

what are you console cunts doing on Sup Forums?

yes but it doesn't really matter, scaling 720p to 1080p for examples is common, consoles scale 720p and 900p to 1080p all the time, if you're using a decent video playing software it'll look pretty much fine if you scale the video to any resolution

>Video games
>Not a child

Pick one

I'll come out and say that this is you, and the ultimate Nvicuck has struck again. Praise the Jew©

cool cool, Also different guy I had someone argue with me on another board about integer scaling in terms of External scalers.

I say you guys discussing it though I ask to verify my sanity.

Was try to explain why the fuck you need a frame buffer to go into 240p to 1080P and why you can get lag free 960P 4x scaling for half the price.

>there are plenty of games and you need 1080 ti to play at 1440p 120+ fps max settings
Yeah, like the Witcher 3, Deus Ex MD, and...
Uhm...

>buying >$300 GPU

>inb4 gimping in preparation for new architecture

ahha wtf is that if you zoom in xD

If you're gonne brag about spending a fuckton of money at least do a fucking unboxing of the card

what?? it's useless dude, are you aware how hardware and energy demanding bitcoin mining has become ?

You are stupid. Double the resolution does not mean no distortion. That's not how mathematics of those algorithms work.

Also if you were not technology illiterate you would know there is also a chroma channel. The chroma is lower res.

/this

shill, Sup Forums is that way -->

You're late opie, I got min two days ago.

How much will the price drop when the next gen arrives?

Hey, maybe he's going to water cool it. No point buying an AIB card in that case.

The 1080 Ti is not just a card. It's figuratively an "SLI chip". It basically bundles 3500 cores into a single chip (the regular chips have about half), it costs a lot more to make because of that because the Foundries charge more and it has shittier yields there.

Practically if you are on 1080p (which is still a smart move for a lot of people, especially those watching a lot of video on 1080p), then it's an utterly stupid decision to get such a card.

The sweet spot is still a card that can do 1080p well, e.g. any current ~$200 card or any prev gen ~$400 card like the R9 290.

It's a stupid meme in general, especially for those that watch a lot of 1080p video too, since they distort the video.

The illiterates will usually meme "double the res has no distortion". They are stupid. That's not how math works.

They don't even know there is a chroma channel that is always lower than the regular res.

>buying a gpu because the box looks nice
Jesus fucking christ

It's ok, his mom pays for electricity.

I'm assuming you're biased and thus will not give me a straight answer without some ulterior motive underpinning it, but how do you explain the displays used in every mobile Apple product? Their entire hardware/software design is predicated upon resolution doubling. This includes their laptops, too.

I forgot to say: The end result functions and looks exactly as they claim it does (excellent, with no distortion).

I have a 4K monitor, its great for multitasking, absolute trash for anything else.

That's not an argument. Unless you can prove that doing such a thing is bad, shut up.

There's no good PC games though?

Are there really any newer games that are worth playing except for GTA 5, Witcher 3 or Battlefield 1? What is there to match GTA San Andreas, World of Warcraft, Call of Duty 2 and HOMM 3?

lol this, these kids kill me

>except for GTA 5, Witcher 3 or Battlefield 1
2 out of 3 are trash tier played by underages to make facebook gaming videos. Witcher is okayish.

So, no. There really aren't any newer games worth playing. Not to mention that older games didn't require 1000 $ or 1000 € investments in order to have some fun with your friends. And this is coming from someone who gave up gaming years ago.

the fuck do you mean prove its bad? are you a fucking simpleton? I suppose you buy bleach for your rice krispies because the toilet duck looks cool.

Not that it fucking needs an answer but since you're apparently the result of a few generations of brother sister incest, packaging is designed to catch your eye and make you want a product. It doesn't speak to the qualtiy of the product itself, unless thats a major USP of said product, and the packaging will deliberatly be designed to highlight strengths(real, perceived or otherwise) and avoid any sort of negative comments or implications about the product. In short, its designed to sell items, not provide proof of quality.

PC gaming is dead? Then why did it generate $30 billion in revenue last year your moronic cunt? That's way more than all the consoles combined. You're just sad because you have a boring AF job while others on twitch and youtube are gaming, having fun, and making more money than your bitch ass faggot.

I forgot to mention a couple more classics: Age of Mythology, Age of Empires 2 and 3, C&C: Red Alert 2.

WTFFFFF.
Might as well play at 144p and upscale to 4k.

>he doesn't have a 120hz monitor

you sound jelly af that he has a 1080Ti

People, listen up, the God of the fucking games industry has spoken, and declared PC gaming dead.

Go fuck yourself, you're nobody of importance, worth or power. You'll never be remembered for anything worthwhile, nobodys' mind will ever be changed by your opinion

So, why don't you provide an example of a newer game worth playing? And why are you so mad?

>Y..Yeah well i got more important things to take care of like bills!

You know it's really hard to take you serious when you use insults so casually. I disagree with the overall argument, I think good packaging shows that they've put more effort into their product, and as such their GPU is most likely better performing.

It really isn't.
PC gaming is fine and advancing because the keyboard allows it unlimited game mechanic advancement.

Console gaming is dead instead.

It has turned from video games to video.
The games part is dead and now all you guys have are interactive movies and copy paste,
all because your brand refuse to update their
controllers properly.

Nobody is jealous of anyone with a 1080Ti, but hey, now you can tell auntie mom and uncle dad you half assed a comment on Sup Forums, well done son

Is it worth upgrading from a 980Ti to a 1080Ti or is it better to wait for Volta ?

I don't really see any 2017 game requiring that much power

its another 3.5memebyte graphics card.

...

So its a bad thing when some people are so fucking retarded the only option is to get annoyed about it?

If you must have 4K for gaming purposes then yes for the 1080ti. if 2K or 1080p gaming then no. Just stick with overclocked 980 non-reference card of course. or one of the low end 10 series cards like 1060/70 with the 3GB. 700 bucks is too much for a card. never buy the best. buy the 9 series or the cheaper alternatives for 10 series.
