Value for money

[xraycat87]

Quick question.

Ignore my sig as I've sold my 390 but I have since been offered another and msi 390 for 170 or a Nvidia 980ti for 250.

My monitor supports 144hz and I'll be playing at 1080p ultra.

What's the best value card.

Oh and I'll try dabble in mining too.

Well gaming and mining are two separate pursuits and tbh I can't see you getting much mining done with just one 390. Get a 980ti and enjoy your games.

250 for a 980ti is steep imo, try haggling down to 230.

I've now been offered an msi 1070 for 360.

if that's second hand for a 1070 then no!

It's not £110 better than a 980ti @ £250(although 980ti's should be about £220 really by now), second hand the 1070 should be no more than about £280 for a good aftermarket cooled version

 

[xraycat87]

Yeah it's a second hand msi one but it's only 3 months old.

I've offered 230 for the 980ti and he rejected it lol

You can pick up a brand new 1070 for less.

Where??

 

[xraycat87]

Can't find one less then 390 and that's a mini

 

[imginy]

Where??

They often have them on here for £350

All the 1070's on here are sold out and we are not aloud to link to other sites.

I would try and buy a second hand 1070 rather than a 980ti.

But not for 360, more likely 300 or even less.
How much value does a new product lose once it gets sold? 50%?

Yea. At £360 OP can buy a second hand 1080.

With the way prices are going at the moment and the speculation of prices for the new gpu's I think the second hand market prices will hold high.

People that bought early will be laughing.
