Yeah you'll be able to handle the Titans :P

 

Only thing I would say is that you may want a non-reference cooler if you want to stealth out your build (I see you're going with the "Black Edition" rampage). This is a little tricky with Titans as NVidia only allows manufacturers to ship Titans with the reference-style cooler (I guess because it's a bit of a "flagship" for the brand), however if you're up to it Gigabyte ship their Titan with a separate Windforce cooler that you can attach yourself. I've heard they still will cover the warranty if you do this to, although you'll want to double check.

 

In any case, Gigabyte has the cheaper of the two Titan Blacks I can see for sale at PCCaseGear (I'm assuming that's where you're ordering from, as you're in Vic) - the other manufacturer being EVGA - so you may as well go with them, shouldn't be any noticeable performance difference.

from what i have heard there's some issues with the direct cu ii cooler for the 290x look into either gigabytes windforce or sapphires tri x or vapor x

it all depends on your uses - don't overspend!

You'll have to tell us your uses for it and your current system specs for us to be able to give decent advice

Are you likely to want to use CUDA acceleration for video editing? Because only nVidia offers that, so if it's important to you a GTX 780Ti or even a Titan would be helpful.

CUDA acceleration is helpful in situations but i dont really use it

for 4k editing I'd suggest maybe the 780 with 6gb of RAM Look at 2 290xs in Crossfire with lots of RAM? Make sure that there's good cooling on them (and in your case and room) and that you've got an adequately power supply.

CUDA helps a lot with video editing - you should try it out

a Titan would be good for video editing but not for gaming... 

What's your budget? It would be really helpful

a titan is a 780TI but with floating point acceleration 

 

its still good for gaming

my budget is unimportant i have a 1200 Watt powersupply and i dont have any software that supports CUDA so im not using it anyway is there a way to get a titan to switch off and then when im editing switch it on? because im thinking of getting a 2 780Ti's and then a titan now but still is there a way?

Yes (well not off, it would just idle), but there's not really any point in doing that anyway, if you want a Titan for video editing then use them for gaming too. They're only slightly worse than a 780Ti, but you'd be wasting your money getting both. 

 

EDIT: and you never know when you might use CUDA in the future. So you may as well get a compatible card now.

The Titan's double precision won't speed up rendering/workflow though.

If you have a few programs that use CUDA I'd go Nvidia (Adobe Premiere/AE),  if you use Magix or Sony Vegas buy an AMD card (good OpenCL performance).

144Hz goodness

maybe get a Titan Black? It might be better value

a Titan and 2 780tis ._. what kind of money do you have

Also Nvidia cards tend to run cooler which would help your system live a bit longer

Titan Z's are, frankly, overpriced. Not worth it.

 

You should be well fine with two Titans or Titan Blacks. In fact, for the price of a Titan Z, you could even go with 3 Titan Blacks in SLI. However, I would say start with two. If you have a capable motherboard and power supply, you can always add a third one later. You could probably even just start with one and see how you go - I don't know what res you're planning on gaming at, but even a single Titan is way overkill for 1080p.

 

So, on that note, what resolution are you gaming at - and also, what are the specs of the rest of your system? It would be good to make sure that it can handle multiple Titans before you go and buy them :P
