Gtx 1080 realy needes

[Simicro]

Yes I can imagine because me too I added RAM and changed the graphic card rencently and I was afraid too.

 

But in the end, all went fine on the first try.

 

I would advise to:

 

0) Watch youtube videos on installing a 1080

1) Touch a piece of metal "wired" to the ground to remove as much static electricity as possible from your body

2) Take your time

3) Observe, watch closely and take photos before dismounting the old card

4) Take your time to mount the new card

5) Take this opportunity to remove dust carefully inside your case, your PC will thank you.

6) Close the case

7) When all is fine after starting your PC, have a good beer to celebrate :lol:

 

Maybe it's too much but personally I felt more secured doing the above.

 

I have a Fractal case with the blue light too. Normally, on the back of the case, you have 4 screws that you can remove manually (no tool required). Then you only need to slide the side of the case.

 

Good luck mate, all will be fine :)

 

Once done, please let us know ;)

Since everybody else is being reasonable, I'll chime in

 

 

No, you don't REALLY need a 1080.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You REALLY need a 1080ti. Maybe a Titan. OR better yet, two Titans. Last one to buy a closed liquid cooling loop is a noob!

Tomorrow is the day? Then I cross my fingers for you ;)
