Should I bite the bullet and buy a 1080 or wait
1080ti because apparently the difference is real. I would wait a bit the 1080 should come down in price soon.
I'm going to need to have my credit card in my hand THE MOMENT this goes on sale. It's going to sell out in ten minutes I bet.
A whole 10 minutes, feeling optimistic today I see.
I'm all doom and gloom today but you're not wrong lol

Yes that looks right. Depending on your case you may also want to pick up one of the power re-routing things that came out with the 1080.

I'm putting in a Cosmos 2 (https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119252) which is incredibly huge and heavy. I was going to use this case for my server but ended up buying an xbyte server which is why I have it

I'm actually going to need help moving this. Imagine if I had all of the hard drive bays filled. It would be insane.

I have the Lian Li pcA75B with Window. Huge case but very light, worth every penny(cost more than most people spend on their cpu).
-
@momurda Yeah LianLi is expensive but very high quality

I like the LianLi cases I've used in the past but hard to justify the price.
I'm using a Bitfenix Defender right now. Super small case that can fit a full size GPU. Working really well so far.

Gosh if I had the time to play games, I'd be back on Fallout 4. Last game I truly gave time to was ALIEN: Isolation...what an experience that was.
I got to watch several hours of Alien: Isolation when my SIL played it. Seemed really good.
If anyone is a fan of the original ALIEN, this game rocks...it was so effective that I've yet to replay it because it was so intense.

Slightly off topic but I am both excited and nervous about the new ALIEN film that he is directing. Prometheus was both a good and bad movie. I hope this new Alien film isn't a gorefest and has a good story. The last trailer and the CGI Alien at the end has me nervous.

I feel the same. High points, and some weird stuff and didn't carry it completely. Good promise, though.

Couldn't have said it better myself about Prometheus. Loved how it started...David studying what it means to be human, Shaw's faith, the memories of her Dad, the holograms in the ship...but then just kind of falls apart when the two guys get lost in the ship and decide to touch the worm thing, reanimating that head, the incoherent results of the early mutations, Shaw running around after a C-Section, the Engineers being nothing more than bad guys at the end and then we get a "proto-facehugger" and the Deacon alien at the end. The writing suffered...I hope ALIEN: Covenant covers some of the good things about Prometheus.

I haven't read anyone else's opinion on it (just watched it recently), but there are a lot of questions to be asked in regards to the engineers. I'm not sure that they are enemies. I think a lot of the characters jumped to conclusions. I interpreted the entire story line as them creating us as hosts to the weapon they created (Aliens). I don't think they ever had good will towards us, even in our creation. It's more complicated than "engineers are bad guys" in my opinion.
