A no brainer surely?
Since it's only another 50usd over the 980x?
Haven't seen a lot of testing, but from the results I have seen, seems to clock just aswell if not better than the 980x

Yeah, a no brainer for those with more money than brains. That thing cost more than all of my computer components put together.......almost.

Surely hope I win one though.

I'm happy for those that can afford stuff like that.
