[WTB] Vega 56/1070Ti/1080Ti for gaming (Canada)

[DarkStar_]

Looking to buy a Vega 56/1070Ti/1080Ti as an upgrade to my gaming computer. Located in Alberta, Canada. Let me know what you have and your asking price (including shipping, you can use postal code T3A 5H8 to estimate shipping if needed).

Also willing to grab an RX 580 8GB at around ~$100 USD.

Sorry for the off-topic and just a friendly advice
Please, don't buy RX or Vega for gaming believe me
No matter what 3dmark or benchmark says over the internet
Buy 1070TI and you will never regret your decision
If you have a way, try the cards somewhere both RX and the 1070TI and you will see what i am talking about
I have nothing against ATI but i have everything against paying for something that won't bring you the same performance for the money it worth.
As i said, just friendly advice

Thanks for the advise, but I know what I'm looking for. I'm fully aware that Polaris and Vega have much higher compute performance than game performance. My reasons for wanting an AMD card is to utilize FreeSync. An RX580 performs a bit better than a 1060 in most games now after optimizations, and if I drop below 75 fps, I can use FreeSync and avoid tearing.
With a higher performance card, the 1070Ti performs a bit better in most VR titles so I'm fine with losing FreeSync for better VR performance.

I'm not sure what your spending limit is, but I've got a 1080ti that I'm looking to get rid of for anything fair. My other friend almost paid more for a 1070ti than I charged them for a 1080ti, so I'm wondering if you are particularly hunting for these cards or if you'd be willing to grab a 1080ti if it's within your budget. I'll shoot you a PM in a few moments, maybe we can get you a better card for the same price-point.

Been really busy though, so the prices on a 1070ti might be extraordinarily low without me even realizing it.

You're probably looking to use BTC but in case that doesn't work out, I did see these here from Memory express 299.99 with a 30$ mail in rebate. Not sure how close you are to their Alberta location but could save you the shipping.

Amazon was the next best I believe, still more expensive unless you bought it used.

I'm very close to a MemoryExpress. Mostly looking to buy a cheap mining card as an upgrade to what I currently have (GTX 1060 3GB). I'm fine if I don't end up buying an upgrade yet, so I don't plan on spending $300 and buying a 580 for a small performance increase. Thanks for the suggestion though
