6990 or 7990

7990 would be good if the prices weren't inflated by miners.

Go for the Titans if at all you can.

There is a member on this forum (his name eludes me)

That is running with 2 Titan Blacks for a three monitor set up, just for the VRAM.

 

People that keep saying the VRAM doesn't matter, don't have multiple monitors. It does matter, and in a high end system, will bottleneck your multi-monitor set up.

What people dont want to understand is when your extra gimmicked vram is being fully utilized the core will struggle even in quad sli. Titans just cant handle 6GB vram made of no cached resources eg 3x4K monitors Crysis 3@ultra. You should only consider a titan black if you want the full double precision.

I'd just go with 2 or 3 780's much better than 2 titans

i have no currnet config

In that case, start off slow.

Try to find a hardware store with 3D monitors and try it out. Maybe you won't like it, the general consensus is that 3d costs performance and causes dizziness for most people. If you decide you still like 3D, then grab a single monitor and either a 7970 or 780. (Those are the best upper tier price/performance.) Then decide if you really want to add additional monitors, as you might prefer a single monitor, and so on...

 

The bottom line is, starting from nothing and jumping straight to a multi gpu, 5 monitor configuration is silly. "More" isn't always better and cost isn't the only reason most folks don't run such a configuration. Start off slow, and actually try out these technologies (3D, multi monitor, multi gpu) before you actually decide on what you want.
