  1. @Belzebuth, @LukeSavenije, @rarifiedbovine So I hate to be a pester on this as I already received so much assistance on this topic. But I am unsure if I understand correctly, would a single 2080TI be able to support the three monitors running at 3440x1440p while gaming? Or should I just try to aim for the dual 1080ti's whenever I find them for a reasonable price. I'm not looking for any crazy off the wall frame rates, I would be really happy with 60 fps on high(ish) settings on games. Once again thanks so much for all the help!
  2. In that case it may be better for me to aim for a 2080 ti to future proof this computer.
  3. At least three of them will be running EvE clients - So for the most part yes.
  4. @Belzebuth That is a very good point. But wouldn't I be really taxing a 1080ti with four 1440p monitors, hence the extra one helping pick up the slack? Also upon reviewing some newer info from CCP it appears EvE Online doesn't support SLI and is really mostly CPU bound.
  5. Thanks for the reply! For now just the computer itself, monitors will come later as I'm keeping a close eye on the Acer x34 predator monitors - possibly others if something has better price to performance.
  6. Hello all, so I am planning on a new computer as my current one is really starting to chug in the work load + the gaming I do. A little background on the use for this, I need it for work (mostly emailing, video files, video editing, things that more screen space really helps with.) The second use case is where I am seeing the chugging and noticeable issues, that is in gaming. I am a HUGE EvE Online player, FPS, Strategy player, and I notice almost regularly 80%+ ish cpu usage while the GPU is always pegged at 100% ( with this I normally run around 6-10 clients if that helps at all.) So now to the upgrade part that I need the most help with - I plan on going to a multimonitor setup from my single monitor to three or four 1440p 34' ultra wides. So my question/comments are as follows: 1) What would be my best bet for pushing all those pixels given the crazy price changes of GPU's? (titan xp, dual 1080 ti's, etc) 2) Would a i7 8700k be enough of an upgrade or is an i9 9900k the better choice? 3) Is Intel still the king for gaming or is Ryzen picked up? 4) I would like to keep it within $3500. I can provide further info or benchmarks if needed. I would also like to thank everyone for the help in advance!
