Yes, it's overkill.

 

.................For Quake Live

I really wish that we'd just make organic hardware already, that grows and adapts to the demands it needs to meet. That way, grannies' computers can be floppy sacks of organicness and the 12 year old Minecrafters will look like the guys that only do bicep curls, and the nerdy programmers will finally have justice, with their body-builder rigs that skipped leg day.

Haha, fun constelation that you have there. You should however put a full custom loop in the that 900D or it will look very empty. You could also use a 750D if you were to stick with air cooling. And you need more SSDs for the extra FPS especially in minecraft. :P

 

 

you do realised that the titan z is a triple slot card right???

 

So?

who cares...

It is overkill for almost anything a non professional user could do. Unless you really have unlimited money as your name suggests, this is ludicrous and nonsensical. Also bare in mind 2 titan z's are NOT enough to reach 60 fps on ultra with 3 4k monitors in surround. So it's just wasted money.

You won't look very smart or have much to brag about if people find out you spent 17k$ on a pc you don't need.

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