Price?

Got mine from Sam's. They had the best price anywhere for a 1500.

Not bad.

What they have in the servers?

Gaming is such a boring thing for me lately. Server and networking is much cooler.

You must have a room full of hardware lol


So I replaced my PSU and got my pc to finally boot. Couldnt get my monitor to turn on with dvi, so I switched to hdmi and it booted with integrated graphics. Cant get my 1080 to detect to my Mobo. Tried all my pci slots, no go.
Ive always paid for people to work on my PC, so exchanging the psu and power cords to the mobo/cpu/gpu is the only time ive laid hands inside a machine. Had a buddy check my work and said I did everything right. We tried a different connector for the gpu and got nothing. Whats weird is the gpu lights up, and the fan spins on it and everything. Took it in for diagnostics this morning, but it looks like im getting a new gpu.
Sucks because I wanted to wait and upgrade with the 1100 series. Whats a semi cheap card i could purchase for 6-8 months until nvidia releases 1180ti.



Obly really play Pubg/overwatch right now


Eta: Replaced psu had enough juice. Bought a 750w

My laptop has a 1060 and runs nearly everything at 1080/60. Perfect when working on the road.

Check Craigslist and see if you can find a deal there or go to Reddit hardwareswap

Have you tried replacing the Mobo yet?

Basically get a replacement from the manufacturer if the card is still under warranty
