Here you go (No MIR/Promo)

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861

More processers and more vram, of course it will be better.

6GB vs 4GB. Don't add the VRAM of the dual GTX 980's up because that is not how it works except potentially in editing.

Neither. If you have that sort of budget, get 3-way sli 970s. Cheaper than both solution and significantly faster.

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨

You do not need SLI for adobe after effects and stuff like that. SLI is only required for gaming I believe.

Because 4x GTX 980 will stomp it without even trying at the same price. Hell 3x980 will destroy 2 titans at a lower price. HELL 2X980 CAN BEAT 2 TITANS AT HALF THE PRICE! No joking, it's close but the dual 980 wins
