What card should I get...

Giki
Go to solution Solved by spartaman64,

gtx 970

Hey guys!

So I've been building my system for a while and I already have ideas as to what graphics card I want but, I want to see what you people recommend for me.

 

My system so far contains

 

i7-4770k

16GBs of hyper x fury ram

asrock z87 extreme4 mobo

a 750W power supply

and an n600 cooler master case...

 

Price isn't really a problem just as long as I get something worth the money but, cheaper is better...

I might also be interested in an sli/crossfire setup.

Things I'll be using it for include,

Gaming, Adobe Photoshop, after effects and premiere pro, 3DSmax, Kinect 3D scanning and a Head mounted display.

Oh yeah and DaVinci Resolve!

 

I will also be running 3 monitors.

 

 

THANKS!

Best value would be the 290X or GTX 970. 

 

For three monitors, you'd be wanting to look at the 980 or 2x 970 (if you're gaming on them in surround)

If you have to buy now i would get a few 8GB 290x's.

Unless you can wait for the 300 series.

Nvidia is to Dr Dre Beets as AMD is to KFC.

One makes you broke, the other you can get more of and have a midnight snack from the fridge when hungry again. Once you go Nvidia, you go broked, turn into an Elitist, or get the incorrect amount of VRAM.

 I was only 9 years old. I loved Fifflaren so much, I had all the NiP merchandise and matches pirated. I prayed to Fifflaren every night before bed. Thanking him for the life I have been given. Fifflaren is love I say. Fifflaren is life. My dad hears and calls me a fuckhead. I knew he was just jelly of my passion for Fifflaren. I called him a Sw@yer. He hits me and sends me to go to sleep. I'm crying now, and my face hurts. I lay in bed and it's really cold. A warmth is moving towards me. I feel someone touching me. I feel someone touching me. It's Fifflaren. I am so happy. He whispers in my ear; "this is my pyjama". He grabs me with his powerful Swedish hands and puts me on my hands and knees. I'm ready. I spread my ass cheeks for Fifflaren. He penetrates my butt-hole. It hurts so much but I do it for Fifflaren. I can feel my butt tearing as my eyes start to water. I push against his force. I want to please Fifflaren. He roars a viking roar as he fills my butt with his love. My dad walks in. Fifflaren looks straight into his eyes and says; "He is a ninja now". Fifflaren is love, Fifflaren is life

GTX 980 is probably best for you, but the GTX 970 and R9 290X are more 'bang for buck'

Titan x in triple sli... 

 

But seriously, I wonder how the titan x would fare in your set up against say dual 980s?  The price of the x is cheaper no?

well a titan x with a mild oc can beat dual watercooled 780's that are overclocked as far as they will go with a hacked bios.... go to jayztwocents youtube channel he did a review and said that
