No compatibility issues, but you're right that you should get a single 780.

There won't really be compatibility issues anymore and you will get better fps, but I would (and did) go for a single 780. Produces less heat, draws less power, and isn't a ton weaker. Will be better in some games that aren't optimized for dual cards, although those are becoming less common.

What resolution are you playing at? A second 760 might be redundant.

No issues, but the 780 will beat 760 sli and lets say the 760 sli is the same exact performance not all games support sli so then you would be stuck with one 760

just look at the performance of the mars 760 for reference. Closer to a 780ti but sli/thermals/power consumption will still be a concern.

Most games support SLI. In 3 years I didn't enounter one that didn't. Also SLI 760s will beat a single 780 in most games, but it depends on how well the game is optimized. The reason to go for a single 780 is less heat output and less power consumption @DaZe_FAM0US Neither is a bad choice.

760 SLI will beat a single 780, but OP it's up to you. Go with your gut instincts.

If you have a 760, go ahead and add another but get a 780 if you are buying new
