You guys realise the GPU in that system is about $1300 worth?

It's actually a pretty bloody good price, although I would never spend that much myself. As Anthony alluded to, law of diminishing returns suggests that spending more than around $1500-$1800 on a PC is pretty much futile.

Its just overkill though. Realistically a 2.4ghz processor 8gb of ram and a 1.4GB graphics card will play EVERYTHING on ultra. Only just at 60FPS but it will do it. These days you can build a pc like that for like $800-$1000. In saying that the 1.4GB cards are getting out dated. Mine is getting old and im going to overclock it soon. But for like $200 for a 2GB card its an easy fix.

You can't just say a specific amount of memory on a card is enough.

You don't know how many monitors, what resolution and other factors that dictate what card is required.

Anyway this is all getting off topic - chat in the chat thread.

    • And what is the significance of the Italian word for "reserved"? AFAIK, it means nothing WRT GTRs.
    • There's no way that we can tell what they were for because they are not stock. Somebody had something installed that needed an earth and took it 98% out.
    • Hey SAU,  I pulled my fascia apart to remove my cluster and found these snipped grounded wires, and a black wire off to the side. I was wondering if anyone knew what these were for?  To note: My headunit is not powered and has not been since I purchased the vehicle the cigarette lighter was not hooked up either, unsure if this has anything to do with it?
    • Welcome!  Any pics of the new GTR? You'd be amazed how many people have minimal plans initially. 🤣
    • Hello all I've been lurking around and reading many threads for quite some time, so I figured I may as well join in. I recently picked up a R33 GTR 3 V-SPEC RISERVATA that’s mostly stock. The car has always been a bit of a dream for me, and now I’m slowly starting to plan the next steps — nothing too crazy yet, but I’d like to keep it clean and responsive while pushing a bit more power.
