My EVGA GTX 770 might be sold tomorrow or Thursday. I posted it on CL and Nasioc (Hai haters) and a guy wants it. I've seen them (2GB version) go for $150-$175. He's willing to pay $175 so

What are you going to get next?

I bought Assetto Corsa instead of Project Cars.

 

[Michal006]

Can't go wrong with both.

 

[Dar-Dar]

It's tough. I need a steering wheel for it.

GTX 970

Also boxed up my Logitech G930 headset to send to Logitech for RMA.

I need to upgrade my graphics card, my GTX 660 is showing it's age...

I bought Assetto Corsa instead of Project Cars.

How do you like it? Do you play with a wheel or controller? I've been thinking about Asseto Corsa for a while but just haven't bought it yet. I have a Thrustmaster TX wheel but just don't want to drag it out sometimes. I've wondered how the game does with a controller.

I've only been playing career mode for a couple of days. I'm still trying to figure out other game plays. Right now, I'm using an Xbox controller. But I'll buy a steering wheel if I get tired of using it. You can actually use the Oculus Rift for this game. It probably makes the game much more realistic.

[bootyluvr]

[bootyluvr]

- he couldn't meet today. Rescheduled for tomorrow. Might still buy the GTX 970 later after dinner.

Also who was looking at GSkill RAM? @Michal006

GTX 770 (top) vs GTX 970 (bottom)

My 6-7 year old CPU is officially kicking the bucket. It will freeze up after 5-10 minutes after the boot up is completed.

Might look into getting something else. Perhaps a cheapy laptop? I mainly am on my iPad most of the time but sometimes I want to just sit at the desk while doing bills or similar things.

Any suggestions? the cheaper the better

How much are you looking to spend? $250, $500 or something under $1k? Any specific size of the screen? I assume this will be only used for internet and paying bills?

 

[Michal006]

This would be my choice.
