Forty odd bucks a year or 7 bucks a month for 113 already released titles, a free go at upcoming unreleased titles and 10% off new purchases, with more games added over time. If you like a bit of gaming it could be worth a go.

I already have a 1080ti, 1tb nvme boot drive, 32gb of high speed ram, 1tb of ssd game drives as well as 11tb of hdd storage for other crap so that's pretty much covered. I spose it probably is a waste of money for a 15% increase.

I think he needs to delid it as the temperatures suck. if you dont already have DDR4 and want 32gb of it prepare to pay the price. for me im about to get a 1440p gsync ips display so im going to need a 1080TI or something soon..

I get all the fps's at 1440p though, it's a good match. Lol I bought a ben q freesync monitor cos I had a couple of r9 290x's a while ago. It's a tn panel but it's also the first decent monitor I bought so it seems ok. 2 minutes ago, skidxr6t said: if you dont already have DDR4 and want 32gb of it prepare to pay the price. I saw...it's about a grand so I was going to stick with 16gb if I did upgrade.
