780Ti at a fraction of the cost
You are correct, your choice, just seems to be a bad one i f gaming is your main priority. If you were doing a lot of double precision compute I could see the appeal because it is then very cheap for what it is, but you don't (from everything you have ever said at least).
Also dtna lmao, your bluff was called so beautifully. I am sure that Linkin will accept your apology for wrongfully attempting to label him a liar

Does your daughter still fold with my old 9600GSO?
I gave that computer to my brother a few years ago. Not sure what happened to it...might have pawned it I am sure
Just the Corsair LED fans, how many do ya need, I have a few extra I didn't even take out of the box. I won't do anything with them.

And this is coming from the guy with a built 4 cylinder in a car from 1988
Why is that derogatory? It's not like it's an 88 chevy caprice here, it's a Shelby Z daytona...a pretty rare car. And BTW, my 1988 car is faster than anybody elses car on this forum, by a lot lol. And to top that off, I only had to put about 6k in it to do that (thats including what I paid for the car )

"Only" 6k for a car from 1988, you could have gotten a Taurus or something that would get you from point a to point b for a lot less. And besides, how do we even know if it's your car?

LOL! Do you also think it's stupid that people buy a 1970 Hemi Challenger for 250k then? They could have bought a taurus!
First of all, it's not my daily driver. Second, it's a rare and classic car. This isn't a chevy caprice, it's a Shelby Z daytona. And thirdly, I haven't seen any taurus whip any Vette's lately.
And yes I only had to put about 6k in it to do that. By that token, I'm paying far less for much greater performance (the exact opposite of what Linkin did). So I don't see the point of your derogatory post, in fact it's about as much opposite of a comparison as you can get. So, good job in proving my point further lol.
Maybe you don't understand when I said ''that includes what I paid for the car''. I know you're not a rocket scientist, but maybe you could put together that I didn't pay 6k for the car....I actually only paid 1k for it, but have 5k in modifications to make it very fast.
But I actually have to put another grand into it though, you have to have a roll cage to run faster than 11.49 and since I'm pretty much there and was thinking of dabbling with Nitrous and going for 10's....well, thats what you have to do.

I'd like to race you when I graduate! Grandma's giving me $3k and I'm selling my Altima to get a Audi B5 S4... But I'm sure there's a few vehicles on this forum that could beat your dodge.. It sure looks like a sleeper according to google..
lol ok. Yeah it's a sleeper, in stock form. But when you're making 3 times the stock horsepower, that just makes it fast
To anyone that knows anything about cars/engines, I'll clue you in. I'm running 86lb fuel injectors and a 57 trim T04E turbo, and I might have to upgrade soon.

Well aware of the 50% charge due to having friends from there. still seems for the same money a different card could have been purchased.

So you're saying you spent $5k for a 20% increase in performance then?
lol @ your math.
300% genius.
But if you want to talk dumb yet again......there's people with mustangs camaro's and vette's that easily spend 5k on a supercharger system to gain ''only'' 20-30%. They must be incredibly dumb! Yet again proves my bang for the buck factor. Thanks!

And I'm the one making derogatory comments. But are they spending 500% of the cars purchase price?
Are they buying a car with a blown engine? I did.
But once again, I'm still going faster than a vette with only 10-15% the cost. This whole argument is about dollars per performance.

(Sorry about being a dick earlier)
My roommate has an A4 from that generation with a 2.8L V6 and Quattro with a 5 speed. It's quick and fun in the corners.
You get out of here with your nonsense. You're not supposed to apologize on the internet.

You can get an LS1 for 8k
+ is the power being put down? Poly mounts, proper suspension, road gripping tires?
You can make s**t tons of power but the question is if it's being used.

You forget that this car is front wheel drive. It would probably be another 8k just to properly do a RWD conversion. You would spend 2k alone on a good transmission, maybe more. Then you need an axle, driveshaft, brakes, body work, probably tubbed, etc etc.
The power I'm making is pretty much useless on the street. I have a street tune that ''only'' runs 20 PSI of boost on pump gas where I make about 300whp. I run 30 PSI on race gas, and get 450whp. I recently took a drive while I still had race gas in the tank and it was pretty comical....punch it at 80mph and I almost lose control because the tires just spin and then torque steer takes over.
