After my earlier winging about shipping my 980Ti, it just arrived in all of its beauty. My dilemma right now is whther I should install it right now or wait until tomorrow when my other PCI-E Samsung 950 PRO and Corsair HX1000i get here........

This is my current build status: !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

Disclaimer on the Gigabyte board, I have not yet been able to get it to take the 3200Mhz xmp profile for my memory, nor have I been able to load in a 6700K overclock preset. :( disappointing.

I’d wait. The 950 implies a fresh OS install? No sense installing the GPU, then messing with drivers, just to throw it all away tomorrow :)

Yeah I’d wait and just get it all done at once, I love pc hardware but hate dealing with computer problems lol.

No I already have one running this is an additional mvme SSD to add to the overkill nature of my “workstation”

I took that thing out the first week I completed this build. That drive was free, can’t beat free.

Haha I’ll just bide my time until I can justify an upgrade, until I go 3k/4k I don’t really need any better specs.
