I bought a gtx 1080 too I have the gygabyte, it's kinda noisy but it was cheaper lol. It shouldn't have any problems (beside being too loud) compared to the others, right? I'm betting you'll be more than fine! grats on the 1080

GTX 1080 is not really worth it at my country Sweden, at discounted price is still twice my Sapphire R9 390 Nitro and a good IPS 1440p monitor with G-sync cost more then twice my 1080/144 Free-sync monitor.
The amounted price for the monitor and GPU alone cost more then my whole PC and monitor, with my i7-6700k and R9 390 i can get a mix of Ultra or high setting (except shadow) and remain 1080p +60FPS most of the time.
GTX 1080 get 110-120 FPS on 1080p with everything maxed out if the game is "optimized" while i get somewhere 70-90FPS with mixed Ultra and High, Medium/Normal Shadow, Motion Blur off, SSAO instead of HBAO+, Hairworks or Gameworks off etc. I'm happy with it, will upgrade if a new mid-tier card is designed for 1440p and can smash 1080/144 with ease, ludicrous to spend 800-900 EUR when the damn PC cost as much.

Do you know about AMD cards? AMD Vega is going to come out soon and then you should be able to get a 480 or 490 for pretty cheap cuz prices will drop when the new cards come out. I was actually debating selling both my cards and getting Top end Vega when it comes out because I like AMD better than Nvidia because Nvidia are just kinda skeezy.

Do you know when that was posted? I think I saw such tweet about 4-5 days ago. So we should have official specs by the end of February.

This might not be the most appropriate place to ask, but I literally don't know where to start.
Backstory: Years ago, I bought an XBox 360 just to play the Mass Effect series, and that is all I ever really used it for. Now that ME: Andromeda is coming out, I'm trying to determine which console to buy to play it. Today I realized I need a new computer anyway, so I should consider a PC rather than a console that I'll essentially only use for one game.
The problem is I have never been a PC gamer, and I know practically zero about building a computer. Do any of you have recommendations for a reasonably-priced, ready-made gamer PC that would do an admirable job of playing ME: Andromeda? I'm thinking the $600 to $800 range.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. There are a couple of places that do that sort of thing where they can ship it to you when you buy it online (buy online, its cheaper). My brother just bought a laptop from a site called ibuypower. Descent site, reasonable prices. But you know how the saying goes, teach a man to fish...

Dear Master Race (laptop edition) experts give it to me straight, what will likely be the absolutely lowest spec to run La Andromeda? 10fps and lowest everything is good enough for me lol, I just want to run it and be able to somehow finish...

I guess if I was going to steer you in a direction I would say look at Intel HD graphics. Use that in combination with + cheap gaming laptops and see what you come up with.

Im not to worried about it because i've played Rise of the Tomb Raider and Infinite warfare no problem and those games had better graphics. Would like to know if it will be more gpu or cpu demanding.

3 days later after this tweet... Plain text: MakoRuu @ruttossj 48m48 minutes ago @tibermoon Any word on the PC system requirements for Andromeda? I have faith in my 960, but it would be nice to have peace of mind. Ian S. Frazier @tibermoon @ruttossj I'm told we're releasing the reqs sometime within the next 2 weeks.
