My birthday isn't until tomorrow, but my girlfriend went halfsies with me on a...

6GB 1060 GTX!

Normally $339 at Fry's, they price matched it at $309 from newegg (UPC 824142134917), and then today's promo code of 1246667 brought it down to $299!

Now you can go mine some bitcoins, and make a few pennies a day, while consuming a shit ton of electricity!

it's sad that bitcoin mining has brought graphics card prices up to the point that like 70 bucks over MSRP is a deal

Very cool! And coincidentally, my family all chipped in to get a new gaming rig with a 4GB 1050 Ti in it just a week ago.
Happy birthday, and happy gaming!!

Happy birthday.
Propose to your girl already, if she bought you something worth $300 it's quite obvious she loves you that much

Nice. I kinda wish I had waited a bit longer rather than buying a GTX 970 because the 10xx series (at least when they first launched) are much better value for money.

    @SylverReZ, 1) except final fantasy 16. 2) why would I have a console's whole catalogue if most of the games are either shovelware or terrible games?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Kind of a waste, but the allure of all those games over 100,000
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some shovel ware with low ratings you might enjoy more than the ratings would sugest

    Cruisn on the Wii is one of my personal examples of that, it's considered one of the worst games of all time, I loved it and completed it several times.

    The trick for me was to go into the settings and crank up the Wiimote sensitivity to the max and it gets twitchy but you can win that way lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Lots of other games I enjoyed that reviews would say otherwise lol
