Question 1

Why is this so much money? Its a FE card with Gigabit's name on it. Makes entirely zero sense....anyone care to enlighten me on how this isn't a rip off, playing  solely off of the high demand for the card?

Accepted Answer

at 699+ it is a rip off. but some people need a card and don't want to deal with the time to wait. to buy a 1080 then sell it later to get this card offsets the higher price you pay now. (some of the crazy high non-msrp prices are really stupid though...but some people from other countries will pay for it since they may not be able to get it in their country!)

Question 2

Seems like most of the reviews only talk about the card's performance while the graphics are in 4k. Is it still worth getting if I'm not planning on setting my graphics that high?

Accepted Answer

If you don't plan on using 4K I'd reccomend going down to a 1060. Honestly this card is a beast and rips through 4K max settings like a champ so any 1080p res game would just be a waste to spend this much. Tho it does provide the ability to upgrade to 4k if you choose to in the future.

Question 3

Why is the sale price $899 when the listed price should be $699?

Accepted Answer

Because the vendor who is trying to sell that card is not Newegg, and is trying to capitalize on demand.
