Titan Z vs. 2 980

[AmericanToto]

If i go with the titan z, i will have an i7 4790k, and if I go with the 2 980s, it will be an i7 5820k. And I will be gaming on an ROG swift or PB278Q

[the jolly roger]

dual 980 outright stomp the titan z

 

and you can get a more powerful CPU so win=win

 

 

just for a bit more backround, the titan z is really a workstation and content creation card, while the 980 is pure gaming

[Fate]

2 980s will probably destroy that card

the two 980's are faster cards so the second build will be much better

[xToFxREAPER]

2 980's would eat that titan z for breakfast man.. Your second build would be far stronger

[TheKDub]

Get the 2x 980s.

1x980 + 1080p G-sync monitor and maybe some 3d glasses for movies!!! > 2x980

 

 

Im not fan of 1440p !! no DSR less frames !! 1080p looks fine!!!

[ManWithBeard1990]

Get a Titan series card if AND ONLY if you need the workstation-class features that it offers, like double precision compute and such.

For anything else they are a waste of money just like a Quadro would be.

[Thecrazyswede]

Titan Z was NEVER worth it over two 980's or 780 ti's or even two titan blacks.

Neither, get 3 970s and spare money while gaining 40% more performance.

[Krytopsy]

ManWithBeard is almost the only one that make sense, Titans have benefits and they exist for reasons, as Double Precision, 6 Gb VRAM, etc. but 2 x GTX 980 gives more raw performance in gaming. And about the 3 way SLI, it happens get bottlenecked so much in 1080p in over 90% of games out there.
