yeah.... I know the resell pain, I pretty much sold my 4890s for like 50 bucks each when that happened, broke a 5870 eyefinity when I tried to take a custom GPU cooler off which really fucking sucked(shit costed me in the mid 400's for fuck sake) and gave the other one to my brother(that one was around 380-400) before I settled for my current 6950s for about 320 each and don't know how I will sell them yet when I get like a Maxwell 890 GTX with an el cheapo PhysX card or something, that's the life.......

Whu.... Wow. This is the highest I've ever bought up the food chain. Usually I stick with the mid-range/great value performance cards. I went with SLI'd 6600 GTs back in the day, then a 7900 GT, a 9800 GTX+, and a 560 Ti. They were all around $220 when I bought them.

nVidia has been good to me but I wanted a change. I just wanted to have something new to explore and tweak and seeing as it has been a looooong time since my last ATi/AMD card (9600 Radeon Pro), I thought this would be fun. Plus getting this card for this cheap is just too tough to pass up. I also get Hitman Absolution (which I already have so selling that), Sleeping Dogs (I'm debating to keep it or not - I like what I see but I doubt I'll have time to play it) and Far Cry 3 (might sell it for $25 and buy it in a year when it can be had for $10 at a Steam sale as I have no time to play it right now with my current back log).

Sleeping Dogs is fun if you are into the Chinese kung fu GTA shit
