2 GTX 1060 3gb SLI or 1 GTX 1080 6gb

[iKingRPG]

Any choice? Right now to 1060 3gb are like half the price of a 6gb 1080.

[Firewrath9]

where?

you can't sli 1060s

you can Xfire the rx 570 & 580. Id go get a rx 580 rn.

[lmeneses]

lmao what, even if you could sli a 1060 6gb, a 1080 all the way

[Jurrunio]

single card is always better than multiple cards for the same price, unless the single card is overpriced (which isnt in the 1080's case)

[Fasauceome]

Don't you mean 1060 6GB? or do you mean 1080 8GB? there's no 6GB model of the 1080, unless Nvidia is launching more Chinese SKUs we don't know about

If you want dual GPU, I'd go with a pair of R9 390's.  They can be found for about $100 each on eBay, and in Crossfire compete with a 1070ti or 1080.  

This is my timespy run with everything stock, no overclocking:

Heh, peeps don't get that nVidia doesn't want you to get high end performance by combining/SLi'ing two lower end cards, then many would go that route....hence, they've taken that option to SLi outta their lower end cards. Sure, they'll give various reasons for doing so, but it's all about the moolah, simple as that. So, 2x GTX1060 in SLi is NOT and option, if you wanna go dual lower end GPU's, go the AMD route.

 

For the TS, you either sell the GTX 1060 6GB, and buy the GTX1080 (exactly what nVidia wants you to do)....or, more radically and most unlikely, sell the GTX 1060 and buy 2x AMD RX 580 8GB for some CF goodness, assuming your PSU can support two such cards. I was thinking of doing this myself, my PSU being a MAX REVO 1500W can certainly support two such cards, but a good deal on a VEGA 64 landed on me and I snagged it.

Honestly i would rather have one high end card then two lower grade cards,The high end card will beat them most of the time.And the price of two cards and a big enough psu puts you in the price range of that high end card.
