A nerd was walking down the sidewalk one day when his friend, another nerd, rode up on an incredible shiny new bicycle.

The first nerd was stunned by his friend's sweet ride and asked, "WOW! Where did you get such a nice bike?"

The second nerd replied, "Well, yesterday I was walking home, minding my own business, when a beautiful woman rode up to me on this bike. She threw the bike to the ground, took off all her clothes and said, 'Take what you want!'"

The second nerd nodded approvingly, "Good choice. The clothes probably wouldn't have fit."

VROOM VROOM !!!!!

Very nice.

And with that new sig, you are on a ROLL bud fortunately TPU does not have any rebellious scots to crush so saved is what we'll be

I think I've finally had it with my 295x2. I haven't sat down and played a proper AAA game in an age and most of what I play doesn't need the power to run on 4K anyway.

Had a few friends over and tried to do some Steam streaming (I hadn't tried this since I switched to AMD). What a total arse it was. AMD's encode method is diabolically awul, crushes the colours and can't nail down a sensible refresh rate. At this stage I'm tempted to sell and keep myself ticking over with a nice custom 1060 and have done with it.

You can't handle my rebellion.

Well a guy called Russell Denny turned up to our 30 year reunion a couple of weeks ago, he is a 5ft 3" Scotsman from a little place just outside Glasgow (begins with W I think), the first thing I said to him after 30 years was that he was still the three S's, Scottish, small & scruffy, he replied that he couldn't do much about the first 2, I commented that he had done little about the 3rd either.

Yup, go nvidia, you won't regret it. Loving my new 1080. Try to get at least a 1070 though if you can.

Virtually nothing to lose with a 1070. Try to beat me to it with the 1080, or join me on the 1070 in 2 weeks' time

Plus, if 295X2 is diabolical then 1060 is going to unholy beyond 1080p. And perhaps with a Pascal card you can scale it down to 1440p instead of 1080p.

No mine is shorter and uglier, probably less intelligent too.

An English man, Scottish man and Irish man having a conversation about their daughters. .


English man. I went in my daughters bedroom today, when she was out and there are empty bottles of beer everywhere, under her bed, in her bed, and all over the floor .I didn't even know she drank beer...

Well said the Scottish man in my daughters bed room I found empty cigarette packages, and cigarettes under her bed, in her bed,and all over the floor and I didn't even know she smoked...

Thats nothing said the Irish man I went in my daughters bedroom when she was out and found condoms in her bed, under her bed, and all over the floor and I didn't even know she had a penis.

Thing is half the time the 295x2's crossfire doesn't actually do anything, and a 1060 has vastly more power than a slightly gimped 290X core. Crossfire is a bit of a pain, and Steam Streaming is just bad with AMD and that's what I do most of these days. The games I play include Killing Floor 2 and WoW these days, hardly get to play many other games since my partner has a 2 year old which takes up most of my attention.

It depends on the deal as well though unless of course you are concerned about power, I paid less for my 290x than a 1060 6gb and it chugs along at 1150mhz which in most things is faster than an overclocked 970, it makes sense to get the newer stuff but for me, only if what I have is not enough anymore for what I need, I certainly don't see a single shred of value going for either a 480 or 1060, maybe 1070 to see visible improvement.

If i had the money to upgrade you could of had one of my 970s

Why, they are slow

So are you in your old age.... Some would say rather Tatty

But but but ....... your 970's aren't 56 years old............ So what's their excuse?
