  1. Thanks for the tips everyone, it looks like it is a clear consensus for the 1080 TI. While it would be nice to take advantage of the FreeSync (since the monitors are capable of it) the 1080 TI appears to still be the clear winner. I appreciate all the advice!
  2. Hey everyone, So currently my current build is as follows: Motherboard: Asus Z87-A CPU: Intel I5 4670K (overclocked to 4.2 I haven't tried higher) CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 760 SC 4GB w/ EVGA ACX Cooler Memory: Patriot - Viper 3 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory As you can probably tell, I'm not a frame chaser by any means. At the time I built it in 2013 I just needed something for every-day office usage like browsing the web and office programs with a bit of gaming on the side. I mostly strategy and 2D indie games with a few MMO's like Warcraft and League as I've never been quite into FPS's. The build really hasn't let me down as I also am not averse to turning down the settings to reach a decent frame rate. Recently, however, I decided to get triple monitors for productivity. I now have 3 FreeSync capable 1080p 75hz monitors and have been exploring a few more GPU intensive games like The Witcher and Deus Ex. I mostly play them with the center monitor but I would be interested in trying out surround for some games later. I'm not looking to upgrade my whole system at this point, possibly the RAM and GPU (PSU if necessary). Given the new release of Vega 64, while I wouldn't bite at it's current prices, if I was able to snag one at the originally slated $500 price point should I get one for the sake of taking advantage of the FreeSync monitors I already have? Or would you just buy a GTX 1080 TI and call it a day? While it's undisputed that GTX 1080 TI is king right now, all the information I see regarding FreeSync is directly in relation to G-Sync. Again, given I already have FreeSync monitors, is it worth losing some FPS to take advantage of the feature or would you just go for the GTX 1080 TI and lose this function? Thanks in advance for the advice!
