Sell my TX before it loses more value?

Nor here, nor there
Noticed they are still going for around £600 used and at the moment I don't play anything graphically demanding. D3, WoW, CSGO mainly.

Even just dropping to a 980ti will still net me £100 or so after the sale of the TX (ignoring the £200+ quid I've lost since buying the TX new :D )

What would you do?
 
I can only see the value lowering. I honestly thought the TX would be in a safe place but the TI has devalued it by a lot!

If i was in your shoes i would sell up and get a TI, im glad i sold my TX for £850 months and months ago

Makes me glad I didn't get one! 980Ti is more than enough grunt for me.

Don't get me wrong I knew I was going to lose about this much on it but I didn't think my gaming habits would change and render it not very useful for my needs. I'd probably of went 4k GSYNC if a monitor had arrived with more than 60hz :(
 
Yes.

Wise thing to do.

You probably should have got rid of it as soon as the 980ti came out.
 
I'll give you a tenner for it.

What are we realistically reckoning these will drop to by xmas on the 2nd hand market?

When the pascal mid range cards are released, they will probally be as fast as a 980Ti, but maybe with less ram for around £300, you just see.

Happens every year, just buy a card, enjoy it and forget about the costs, because graphics cards devalue like crazy anyway.
 
Absolutely yes.

The exact same thing happened with the old Titan and 780Ti, and the original Titan even had GPU compute in its favour.
 
Thing is that the 980ti will also lose value. Will the titan x sell for £100 more than a 980ti when you decide to move on from your current card?

I'd stick.
 
I am in the same boat but not worried about the loss but just bored really and would swap my TX out for a LTG 980Ti or EVGA KP Ti.

I am pretty sure I will stick with it though.
