I'd get 2 290x's then water cool em.

 

I can game at 5760x1080 with a single 290x if I turn down my graphics.

i dont trust my self to water cool D:

 

Then I don't recommend the R9 290x since it gets quite hot. Maybe if you got the Vapor tho. 

 

Actually get two r9 290x then two 780's. Mantle support coming with some big games. 

 

Don't buy the Titan Black if you're just gaming.

Not only will you get better performance for ~$40 less ((titan black=$1099) - (2 X 780=$529) = $40), but 3GB on the 780 is plenty enough vram for a while for 1080p, and even 1440p for a bit, 6GB on the titan black is just useless right now. Except for Watch_Dogs....darn you watchdogs......
 

 

*cough* the EVGA SC 780's are epic *cough*

hmmm ok

2 R9 290x will cost just a bit more than 2 780's but the mantle support for games like GTA V, BF4, and Sims 4 is worth it. Unless you want Nvidia features like idk game streaming?

i would get the R9 290xs but i really want g-sync and shadow play

AMD has game DVR which to my knowledge is just as good or even better(don't quote me on that) but yeah G-Sync is something we currently don't have. Seeing as you are spending buttloads of cash on GPU's you don't mind spending the extra cash on some G-Sync monitors.
