Uses- SFM, 3D Modeling/Mapping/Texturing, and mild gaming.
I am still in the stage of getting the components.  Crossed out ones are parts I have.

For gaming

 

Generally anywhere from 0 - 100% extra performance

But on average like 50/60% performance improvements,

 

For rendering, depends if the program supports mutli gpus, if so then rendering will be faster

Well, first off, you have a 780, not a 780ti. 

 

Also, it will depend on the game. Some don't support SLI at all and others will scale at 95%. In general I'd expect around 70% scaling on average. 

 

You'll also need a bigger PSU. I'd go for 850w to be safe with overclocking. 

 

EDIT: This is for gaming, not too familiar with SLI for rendering and such.

for anything that supports SLI you should get at least a 60% gain in performance.

 

If anything doesnt support SLI, or doesnt support it well you will see little to no gain. It all depends on if the software plays nice or not

about a 70-80% increase in most games, rendering it should be closer to 100% increase

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)
