OS Steam and Computer Gaming Thread

If I see a 1070ti in the $400 to $425 range I'm snagging it if that's the case. I've seen them go for as low as $460 so if 20% is true then it should be around the $400 mark.

This one is $460

Nice, that's what I'm looking at too. I'm a big MSI fan as I’ve had a few of their products and have not once been let down. I have the 1060 Gaming X 6gb that looks identical to that 1070ti.

This wasn't the article I came across yesterday and I don't know the validity of this website, but this is basically exactly what I'd read.

Seems like it's not just some one-off report and maybe we do see prices come down a bit. If so, I need to offload my 1060 while it still has some value.

With that in mind, I read something yesterday that it seems possible, if not likely that we see GPU prices come down ~20% in the next month or so.

I'm hoping that's the case. Looking to get up to a 1070ti.

And today I see an article saying an August release was leaked.

Origin Access Premier is live. It's even better than I realized. I had a few Origin Access games installed like Need for Speed Payback and Titanfall 2. Upgrading my Origin Access membership to Origin Premier also upgraded those titles to the deluxe editions.

Yeah, premier giving you the deluxe/hall of fame/ultimate/whatever editions make it even more of a steal.

In a nutshell, it is really great for 4K ultra preset gaming and gaming in general. Great for streaming. Great for rendering. Currently there are ZERO games out today that uses RTX or DLSS, so they can't test RTX or DLSS yet.

1. You do realize you can get a 1080 for that price they charging for the 1070ti now right ? GTX 1080s are going for under $500 now.

2. That SSD going to fill up mighty fast being only 500GB. So I hope hope you using a regular HDD as well.

3. Your power supply on the weak side. I would bump it up to 750 watts. You can find 750 watt power supplies for under $100.


Also fair warning. Fully modular power supply cables are short and a pain in the butt to work with.

Thanks for the input, I'll check out the 1080s, originally I was gonna just go for a 1060 to save money and upgrade soon but I'd rather just get it now.

I'll check out power supplys, I thought the one I picked was solid, so you're saying I should go semi?

For the SSD I'm not too worried, again just saving some cash now. I'll be getting a bigger HDD in the future. I'm really only going to be playing Destiny 2 and installing the OS on the SSD for now anyway.

Originally the build I was shooting for was like $700 with upgradeability within the next year but then I got overzealous.
