I completely forgot about that, I've been sitting on a 970 for years now, I stopped checking prices for video cards early last year and haven't even thought about it in months.
It's quite bizarre to effectively be unable to upgrade your computer for a year or two. I had forgotten how regular that process was for me.

- theandrewbailey 8y agoNvidia announced/launched next gen Quadros yesterday. Gamescom is next week, and Nvidia is holding some "gaming celebration" there. https://www.nasdaq.com/press-release/nvidia-unveils-quadro-rtx-worlds-first-raytracing-gpu-20180813-00977 https://www.nasdaq.com/press-release/nvidia-unveils-quadro-r... https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/news/geforce-gaming-celebration-gamescom-2018/ https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/news/geforce-gaming-cel...
- marak830 8y agoAs someone who is also on a 970, and was tied into the regular upgrade cycle, it has actually been good for me. I have noticed I spend a lot less time reading up about new parts and chasing minor %s. I also think it's made my wife a lot happier haha.
