Yeah. I think he was the guy. I just remember he was such a graphics whore but he never upgraded that card. Best card ever.
Go ask him if he still has it. https://forum.beyond3d.com/members/pjbliverpool.4647/ His signature shows he has upgraded. Still on an old i5 2500K though so he is still stuck in the past.

The market for high-end PC gaming hardware exceeded $30B in 2016. https://www.techpowerup.com/229785/...ket-mints-billions-exceeds-usd-30-billion-jpr After seeing the shortages and price gouging on the new video cards that came out over the summer, it doesn't surprise me to see that the market for gaming PC hardware is booming. Seems like AMD and nVidia were actually having a hard time keeping up with all the demand.
PC game sales generated nearly as much revenue as all console game sales combined in 2017. Not too shabby for a dying platform. http://www.dsogaming.com/news/pc-games-sales-in-2017-are-almost-as-big-all-console-sales-combined/
