Normally $339 at Fry's, they price matched it at $309 from newegg (UPC 824142134917), and then today's promo code of 1246667 brought it down to $299!

Now you can go mine some bitcoins, and make a few pennies a day, while consuming a shit ton of electricity!

it's sad that bitcoin mining has brought graphics card prices up to the point that like 70 bucks over MSRP is a deal

Very cool! And coincidentally, my family all chipped in to get a new gaming rig with a 4GB 1050 Ti in it just a week ago.
Happy birthday, and happy gaming!!

Happy birthday.
Propose to your girl already, if she bought you something worth $300 it's quite obvious she loves you that much

Nice. I kinda wish I had waited a bit longer rather than buying a GTX 970 because the 10xx series (at least when they first launched) are much better value for money.

    I know the pricing of electronics nowadays isn't "how much it actually costs" but "how much we can get away with", but putting up a poll is just cynical.

    that game's engine is really fucking intensive so it runs like literal shit on xbox 360 and ps3
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Nah I'm getting value creep again. I look at a $50 console "but for just a few more dollars you could get XYZ" and I end up considering the Steam Deck.
