Freesync setup to Gsync setup

[Scramz]

Hi all,

I am currently rocking a Benq XL2730Z and a 290X Vapor X. I am loving freesync and I don't think I can game without it now.

After all the issues with CF FS drivers (reason I sold 1 Vapor X) and now having to send my monitor back to Benq to update the firmware due to them messing up the AMA/FS stuff. I am seriously thinking of move over to a 980Ti and getting a Asus ROG Swift.

I was going to wait until the new AMD GPU line was released but I am very impatient.

Would you think the £300-400 hit for the switch be worth it?

Thank you for all the prompt input, its very appreciated.

In that case, I think I will wait until performance results are released for the new AMD line up then I will decide.

I am in the states next month, I was thinking about picking up a new GFX over there as all high end cards are from £100-£180 cheaper over there, I just feel it will be a mess with warranty issues.

Buy EVGA if you do go nVidia, think their warranty is worldwide.

I was looking at EVGA, needed to look into the warranty situation.

I have found the single 290x and freesync very enjoyable on this monitor. I feel 1440p is the sweet spot.

@passey89, I am popping to visit family in Canada next month and they live an hour from the border into Michigan, I tend to pop to microcenter there and get the dirty cheap CPU offers they have. Currently the Titan X is about the same price of a 980Ti in the UK.

It would be cheaper to just switch to a fury, but that will depend greatly on the performance. I think I will wait and see what fury offers (price to performance) then make my decision.

@spikerules, could be a swap deal on here lads! lol

@JediFragger, You bad man!

EDIT: Just noticed that you can transfer 3 year warrantys on a EVGA product too. Pretty good.
