Yep, well, the manufacturer offered a step up outside of the normal window to a stock 980, but it would still be another $400 going into the 2 cards or $200 and a card not being used. Which I suppose I could sell and re-coupe the 2 bills. But that would be giving more money to Nvidia.
Right now, I'm just going to wait and see what comes out from Nvidia, don't expect anything though, and if it turns out that way. It'll be a trip back to the Caribbean Islands for me!
