The 970 is the only GPU I've bought. I did not realise I was bragging. :-)
I've seen it drop to 35 fps at times though. If that's any comfort. ;-)

crash at those speeds. Every little helps. I suppose.

Budgets. Where I was the budget for the racing engine, manufacturing and 
R&D. Came from Advertising or PR or something soft like that. Not 
Engineering or Commercial R&D.
