All different suggestions at similar prices I can't decide. I'm using three monitors 2 60hz one 144hz and only will be gaming on the 1080p 144hz monitor and doing secondary activities on the other two. The build with the evga 970 is supposed to be SLI

There does not seem to be any common thread to the builds.

 

The build with the EVGA 970 cannot run SLI. The motherboard uses the H97 chipset which only supports Crossfire multiple gpu.

 

Consider the following build instead.
