Hey everyone, I will be doing an upgrade and I want to get a few questions out and asked before I proceed with it. My idea is to get 2 x RTX 2080 Super cards for my PC upgrade.

The reason is that I want to increase the amount of monitors I can use and at the same time when I want to relax and play to have otpimal performance. 

Firstly I am currently using 4 monitors. 

Monitor 1 - LG 35 inch 144 hz 3440x1440

Monitor 2 - LG 27 inch 240 hz 1920x1080
Monitor 3 - LG 27 inch 240 hz 1920x1080
Monitor 4 - Acer Predator 27 inch 240 hz 1920x1080

 

My question is if I get a second GPU will I be able to increase the amount of monitors I have? I need to add two more monitors to the setup. Some of you might say it is enough with four and it is dumb or useless but my workflow will definitely benefit the extra monitors especially if one of them is a second ultrawide monitor.

 

Secondly from what I read performance wise for when I game I will not see any benefit if I have two RTX super cards? I do not plan to game on all monitors at the same time I will game on one of the ultrawides.

 

Here is the planned setup for the rest of the PC if you need it for reference:
Ryzen Threadripper 3970X 
Asus Zenith II Extreme
Trident Z Neo (for AMD Ryzen) Series 64GB
Corsair AX1500i power supply


I am still debating on what cooler to get for the system. I will be using my C700P case for the whole build in which I currently have a system with 1950X in it.

 

Awaiting the feedback and help and sorry for the long post!
