First build graphics card help.

[MrMonteCristo]

Hello Linus tech tips community!

I am building my first pc, it is lius's 4k PC. Here is the link: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/166464-parts-list-for-ultimate-4k-gaming-pc-build-guide/

 

So in that build he has dual 780 TI graphics cards. I thinking of getting dual nvidia gtx Titan blacks, will everything in that build still be compatible to get the Titan instead, like the PSU, motherboard, etc(The build is the link :-))?

Also is the Nvidia Titan black better than the Nvidia Gtx 980?

 

Thank you so much for all your help! :-)

I'd go with dual 980s. (The 980s would be better).

Dual gtx 980's over titan blacks IMO. MAXWELL is just MAXing out thosegames WELL. Sorry for the bad puns

That's a pretty old build. Nowadays if you're just gaming you'll want at most a 4790K, but a 4690K is still perfectly fine, along with a Z97 board. Dual 980s would be preferable to dual 780 Ti's, and having 32GB of RAM and two Intel 730s is WAY overkill for a gaming PC. Also Spectre Pro's suck

R9 295X2 aren't those better for 4K or is 980's better?
