[Potential] Build R8 thread:

Also I'm gonna embrace the spynet with Win10 as an OS. I know it's Win10 but it's free and I only want to use it for vidya and VR

Anon, the GTX 1080 will be presented next Tuesday... You can't fuck up so much.

Wait couple of months or buy cheap R9 390 now.

At least you're not getting a 970 too

>Evo
do yourself a favor and get a Pro
>980
is the Ti really out of your budget? It wont make a mind blowing difference but extra memory and extra performance might make a difference on games to come (unless you plan to upgrade next year)


>>53787379
Games are starting to put the memory usage at 7GB, getting some "future proofness" is always a good idea

>>53787352
That's why I've been reluctant to start a build.
But I'd still rather start a high end-ish build now than wait for the new card to be released, unless the price is similar to the 980's original price here.

I just want 60FPS at max graphics ;-;

Also holy shit I had no idea a new card was coming.


>>53787379
I didn't think SSDs were a meme

why are they a meme?

>>53787468
The Ti is $1100 here

>>53787485
holy shit, not worth it

>>53787469
>why are they a meme?
they aren't but don't expect any benefit from them other than some load times improvements


And as the other anon said waiting for the 10XX to come out might eba good idea since prices will probably go down a bit

I was suggesting you need more, not less

>Corsair CX
Don't get a cheap PSU like that.

>>53787511
Yeah I think I'll do that. Good idea


How's my build though, anons?

>>53787517

Id go with this if you're impatient. If I were you though I would wait for the new technologies to come out (Pascal/Polaris, Zen/Kaby).
