Question

Video card help needed

Hi. I'm almost finished ordering parts for an Oculus build. All I have left is the video card. I plan on getting a 980 Ti 6GB. I really wanted to get a Zotac 980Ti AMP! Extreme but it won't fit my case. Any help with a choice would be appreciated. Thanks, Grim

    I just sent an email to EVGA support asking them if their new pascal video cards will be included in their step up to program. I will post their response when they get back to me.

    I just bought a MSI 980TI GAMING 6G. It is factory refurbished and cost $579. I personally have no problem buying FACTORY refurbished and it has a 90 day warranty. I have been watching this site for a couple of weeks waiting for a 980TI to come back into stock and I finally got one. I have no affiliation with this site but I wanted to drop a link for others that are looking.

    Also I have been watching EVGA B stock website listed here.
