Well sugar. I put off buying a new one when the whole CPU vulnerability debacle came to light. Oh well, maybe next year Posted Image

The GTX1070 I bought about 8 months ago for under $400 is now selling on eBay for $900. Used.

It's very, very tempting to sell it and go back to my old SLI'd 650TI Boosts. They were fantastic cards. But with only 2GB VRAM, they were having issues with high-res textures.
