Rebuilding my current rig

[gigabyte]

Well I think I'll be re-doing my build for 1440p at the moment and 4k in the future.

Current specs:

4770k

Asus 780

32gb 1866 ram

Asus Maximus VI Hero

750W PSU.

I will SLI/cross fire, this is what I'll do I believe:

4770k stays

Will change 780 to either 290/290x (crossfire)

Might sell of 16 gb of ram

Will sell/exchange PSU to 1000W

Any suggestions?

All of it will be watercooled, I also need a new case, which one would be good for 360mm radiator+ 240mm radiator?

Feel free to recommend anything

you will only need 850w for CF 290/290x

 

go for the CF 290 instead of CF 290x.  saves about $200 and have just about the same performance.

Well at the moment gigabytes 290x reference card is on sale so it's like $30 cheaper than the cheapest 290, I'm in Sweden tho, I think I'll go with the 290 because the sale is soon over and I won't purchase now, I will get a 1000W as I don't want to hear the PSU's fan @ 100% when I'm gaming

you don't need a 1000w psu in order for it to be quiet.

I won't buy 2 780 TI's that's for sure, and selling my 780 and purchasing 2 290/290'x will be like buying another 780, so I'll go crossfire I belive

Yes don't sell nvida. But seriously if you're not getting a brand new monitor Nvida might be releasing new cards soon driving the prices down. Why not add another 780 instead of selling it? My Asus dcu2 780 doesn't even need watercooling it maxes out on air with perfect temps. my 2 cents.

I know but I'd rather just go with a 1000W as 2 290/290x's takes 600W @ Stock clock

I will watercool and the 4gb will be a big advantage over the 3gb in some games @ 1440p an most games @4k
