SOAP BOX: People who perpetually speak in buzzwords annoy the hell out of me. It’s like they’re trapped in an eternal cycle of introductory sentences and just forgot how to say anything of substance.”We’re going to realign to deliver more impactful results. Through hard work and dedication we can really launch ourselves up to that next level.”If you can't give me any supporting statements explaining how you plan to do either of these things, all you're really saying is that you think you know best but aren't actually sure what you're going to do.

It's like writing a 4th grade paragraph. Start off with an Introductory statement to summarize your point. Include 2-3 specific points in support of your opening statement. Close it out by re-summarizing your opener using different words. Why is this so hard to do?

I finished the Mass Effect trilogy for the first time last night. I'm still crying.

Umm, you're not really losing persay by not getting all the ME2 DLC's but you'll gain a lot by getting at least the Shadowbroker DLC and the Arrival DLC.
The others all bring marginal value, imo, but some people swear by them.
For ME3 I definitely recommend the Citadel DLC as a must-have. You're absolutely missing out by not getting it. I haven't gotten any others as reviews on those seem to be hit-or-miss and I think the game is long enough as it is. lol-

Seriously, one of my favorite trilogies of all time. Love the storytelling from start to finish, despite how incomplete the originally-released ending was. (ME2 had the best ending in the series, but ME3's ending in it's current existence is quite passable, thanks to the citadel dlc.)

Is pretty sick, Sorry not on this weekend more.

The market for mid-range GPU's has inflated like the market is about to collapse.
In February/March timeframe:- GTX 1060 6 GB cards were selling for ~$250-$400.
- GTX 1070 8 GB cards were selling for ~$350-$450.
- GTX 1080 8 GB cards were selling for ~$600-$800.
Now:
- GTX 1060 6 GB cards are selling for ~$300-$800
- GTX 1070 8 GB cards are selling for ~$500-$900
- GTX 1080 8 GB cards are selling for ~$550-$1000
I read up on a few forums and reddit, and I guess a lot of the 1060's and RX 480/580's got bought up by "miners" (data miners?) . This reduced the supply for those mid-range cards so now people are paying more for them. This has made it easier to inflate the higher tiers too, such as the 1070's and 1080's.
Here's to hoping that I'll be able to buy a new graphics card by Christmas.

FYI, I'll be paying this off half now and half later, so I guess not completely irresponsible but close to it.

Soooo, I complain about this and then I get an email from EVGA that the card I want is now available for $269.
I was completely irresponsible and just bought it on credit b/c of my experiences in February. lol

Possibly. I somewhat anticipate Black Friday/Cyber Monday being the main catalyst for reasonable pricing, but we'll see.
