Looks like 1060's are out of stock in a lot of places for the sub-300 models... did it just come out and start flying off shelves?

Yeah pretty good midrange. The RX280 would be a great choice also.

Yep, gotta let the excitement settle.

Okay one more question - I'm actually helping a friend with a build today, short notice, and he wants to budget $600 (let's say pre tax) on CPU/MB/RAM/GPU... for gaming and general productivity. Any recommendations in that range?
Thinking $200 for CPU, $100-130 for MB, remaining balance to GPU and RAM
A beefy PSU, SSD, peripherals & ATX case already on hand (bought on prime day)

PCP didn't have too many prices on the 1060 or rx 480 but thats probably what your looking at for about ~$600-$650

AMD stock skyrockets today, acquisition most likely incoming when a stock rises that much over 2 days.
Gotta call my uncle and ask what I should do here, sell off soon or continue through possibly acquisition, this is where I tend to get lost in the stock market but luckily have family involved heavily to help me out.
Bought in for 3,000 shares at $2.83/share earlier this year, stock is currently at $6.70/share with analyst predictions of $10/share and minimum $8-9 by years end.

The nearly 30 percent two-day rise is typically indicative of a potential acquisition deal, with likely prospects Chinese technology companies, said Will Strauss, an analyst with Arizona-based Forward Concepts Co. “My guess is somebody’s looking at them,” he said. “Clearly AMD has valuable products and valuable [intellectual property] and good leadership.”

I'm watching only to cook marshmallows on America's flaming corpse. Then I shrug and go back to Witcher 3.

Wasn't Microsoft rumored to be involved in purchasing AMD at one point?
Posted on 7/25/16 at 9:48 pm to CockCommander
Intel and Microsoft both.

They got sold a few months back, sorry. 980 Tis should be on the block soon.

Traveling at night on the interstate is so relaxing. Especially if you have a good audio book.

Damn. 980 tis are probably way out of my price range

Is $150 for a EVGA gtx 780 SC a decent price?
Edit: or a 7950 for $80?

Best mouse purchase I have ever made:
Logitech G900 - $149.99
Can be used wired or wireless and even in wireless mode has less lag than top name wired mice.
Wireless Mouse Technology Testing w/ Logitech - Linus Tech Tips
for those of you like me, that can't stand Linus' voice, the other guy does this video.
