[Please Type Here]

Usage:
Recreational gaming, browsing, e-mail,etc

Special Needs:
Needs to fit in small space

Saved Ticket #: Not available

Specifications:
Digital Storm recently changed standard builds for Bolt 3. I am currently leaning toward their level 3 build substituting a Titan card for the GTX 980. Anybody see a problem with this? Is this build likely to be noisy or have thermal problems? Plan to go ahead and order in next couple of days if no one sees a problem.

Based on the reviews and benchmarks I've seen so far, I'm not sure that it's worth the large jump in price to go from the 980Ti to the Titan X unless you're going to do a lot of heavy-texture gaming.  I would say the $500 is better spent going with 2x500GB Samsung 850 EVOs, which only come to about $382 more.  Not sure why the 1TB EVO isn't an option as that would be my ideal choice: 256GB/1TB 850 EVO combo.  You might make inquiries.

Thank you very much. Went online and compared GTX 980 Ti vs Titan and agree not much difference. Did not realize the 980 Ti is a new card. Will consider upgrading SSD.
