    What Could You Do With The Money From NOT Buying An GTX 1080?

    So Today I Had Enough Of My Dying Hard Drive And GTX 480, So I Said Screw It, Went On PC Part Picker, Did 5 Hours Of Looking For Parts, Got A 2 TB Hard Drive, A New CPU Fan, New Thermal Paste, A RX 480 8GB GPU, And An Hole New Case, Totaled Around $442.87 . I Started To Wander Around The Internet, Looked Up An GTX 1080, And Found That The First GTX 1080 Is $599.99, So Im Shocked That I Manged To Get All The Stuff To Fix My PC For Less Then A 1080.



    So I Wonder, What Could YOU! Yes You Good Sir, Buy From Not Spending Money On A GTX 1080?


    (BTW this is all ment as a joke, i love navida, But my friend is making me to get a RX)

    Thats a 120$ 8 core 4 GHz CPU son. As for the graphics card I brought a 8gb RX470 from MSI for 210$, a month or so ago, but they sold out now.

    So technically it's the money I saved from not buying a GTX1080 and No Mans Sky.
