780 Ti

Go to solution Solved by VMaxMuffin,

 

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.

Is the ASUS ROG Matrix 780Ti Decent? or is there something better with mostly the same asthetics in the higher or lower price point, Team Green Or Team Red Applies 

I think the EVGA ACX looks better since it isn't as flashy, but if you want something that is red that costs less and performs pretty much the same the MSI Gaming 780Ti or DCUII from Asus are cheaper but just as good.

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

look on my profile theres a topic that i made that is "need help" and it is my system + old card that i was going to put in it
