Always buy the most powerful single GPU you can buy. If then you want more power, SLI/Crossfire that GPU. 

I should be studying.

780. SLI does not scale well in some games and may cause issues.

780, but if you can find an R9 290 for cheaper get that instead.

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