  1. Looking at your PC specs it seems like you would have no problem running that resolution, but I am thinking of waiting until it will be less than 1k USD to be able to get both the monitor and the GPU horsepower to run it. 

    I had a 760 before I had SLI 980s, and while it wasn't a enjoyable gaming experience, it was "playable" so a 970 would probably be fine 

  2. Btw you should do @anyone'sname if you want them to get notifications. Or quote them. 

     

     

    Anyways, a liquid cooler with a fx 6300 does not make any sense whatsoever. Ditch that SSD and get at least a 128gb one, get 8gbs of 1600mhz / 1866mhz ram, and get a locked i5 / B85 or H97 motherboard with a 212 evo 

     

     

    edit : oops, quoted someone accidently, sry 

  3. Well... at 1440p it's kind of hard to use up 3GB vRAM on any game that doesn't use nearly that much at 1080p, AA included.

    I did say 1440p+ though, and the reason I said that instead of 4k was just in case he had a 21:9 monitors (which was highly unlikely, but that was the reason) 

  4. Resolution does not have much to do with vRAM usage. The difference between 1080p and 1440p is about 100MB for most games. The game and how much multisample AA you're using are your primary factors in deciding how much vRAM you're going to use.

    That's why I said turn down some AA, because if he's playing at 4k he'll probably have to turn it down if he doesn't want to run out of Vram.

  5. To clarify: Either 780Ti SLI, or 1 single card with more vram, I know I can't have one card with more vram than the other.

    So I'm not stuck on just getting a 780Ti, What I'm wondering is: Is it worth getting another 780Ti when I might need more vram soon?

    Unless you're on 1440p+, you'll probably be fine with 3gb for a while if you're willing to turn down a bit of AA.
