planned build idea

[lukky211111]

you're getting a bit more than 10%, don't forget you're going to overclock the card.

 

I game @ 5760x1080 on my 780TI, and I don't have any issues getting 60FPS+ at that resolution. Most everything is at High/Ultra. Matter of fact the only game I've really had trouble with was crysis 3, it just wasn't playable for me at any setting at that high of a resolution.

 

I had SLI 670's and finally had enough of them, sold them and got my beasty 780TI. Your second card can't even be utilized unless the game has an SLI profile from nvidia. Without a profile the game runs like poop. Plus there was micro stuttering. Plus I could only populate one other PCI-e lane or the cards would fall out of SLI due to lane restrictions on the CPU.

 

The whole thing was a headache and really put me off towards the whole idea of SLI. Don't get me wrong, SLI has its place and usefulness, but only at the really high end where you just can't get the kind of performance you need. In every scenario you will be better off buying a single more powerful card over 2 weaker cards.

 

 

 

Especially considering his monitor is 1080p 144hz

 

 

 

you'll want the 980 for the future

what if i go with a 1440p monitor later on?

 

or say a 1440p monitor for gaming the other a 1080p monitor for whatever else or my ps4
