I told him I didn't have the money. I had the money on the 15th of December, when he promised to get me a card. He had a card for me and I was going to pick it up. Then he called me and told me his boss took it for his mates. That ruined it for me. I am going to stick with this 1080Ti that I have as I have ordered a waterblock for it. After last night, it looks like I need a new case that is designed for water cooling. My Fractal Design R3 does not have sufficient spacing on top for a 360 rad......... Anyone wanna buy an R3? :P 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you can find a load to put through it - the ram isn't going to be noticable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
