I just got me new rig set up but havent got a new GPU yet.

 

New parts are: I7-3770k @4.5Ghz

                       Asus saberthooth Z77

                       16GB corsair ram 1600Mhz

                       Corsair HX650w GOLD 80

                       Samsung 840 pro 256GB SSD

 

Currently im using my 660GTX TI thats also OC'ed.

But i want moar ALOT moar GPU powah !!!! =) to be future proof!

I play on a 1080p 120Hz monitor and gonna keep playing on it.

 

What do you recommend to get best possible price/performance?

SLI the 660TI or go for single more powerfull GPU?

 

Im not on a budget so that gives many options but i want BEST PRICE/PERFORMANCE

SLI is the best Value option, ask yourself do you want to throw down 500 euros on something, that will be beaten by something that costs half that in a couple of years?

 

Zero value for money in any card priced above 250 euro's...given how fast they are bringing out new models.

True but i wont gain alot of powah with a 2nd 660TI instead of going single 780 ? or would that be about the same ?

All i want is about a total 25% (if not more) boost in gaming performance with the newest games vs my 3-4 old rig witch was an 1st gen I5-750 with an 660 TI

Also are there alternatives with for example a 7950 or a 7970 vs the 660TI ? there also verry well priced in my opinion but i do not have the knowledge for amd cards

you will get over 25% with a 2nd 660TI for sure, Games don't scale too bad these days in SLI. You'll get anywhere from 50% to 100% increase in performance depending on the game...you may want to look into upgrading that CPU sooner rather than later to keep up with the cards.
