Depends where you live. NCIX is always a good choice, helps out the Canadian economy, and they are reliable. Just think of Crazy Russian might have touched your GPU :D, and if you don't know who crazy russian, try looking at older linus tech tips clips, he m,ight be in one or 2

Hey guys,

I'm looking to upgrade from my 2 650's up to a titan,

could you guys recommend the a website to buy it?

i'm looking for a generally cheap titan but i really need to upgrade,

Thanks Fam  :)

The Titan X is $999.99 MSRP so you won't find a cheaper one till they put it on say. Newegg.com or any major tech retailer is fine.

 

Edit: posted same time you did. Just use ebay or local listings.

The Original Titan

 

IMO the gtx 980 is a better option, especially when you want more performance per dollar.

 

You may even be able to get two 980s for the price of 1 titan.

 

Amazon, NCIX, and newegg are all places to look.

Thanks Sir i will take a look at it.

Also how would the (1 or 2)R9 280x('s) fare against my 2 650's?

I was talking about GTX 980s, even a single 980 would destroy 2x r9 280x, not to mention it would use tons less power and output much less heat.

Ok, thanks. I assume that i would be able to run Nvidia Surround on the card(s). What is the minimum card that will still run Nvidia surround?

I'm fairly sure pretty much any nvidia card will run surround. (The GTX 980 is one of the most powerful single gpu cards out there, so it will perform pretty well)

The Original Titan

 

if you want the performance of an original titan get the gtx 780. the 780ti out performs it for less money, or you could get a gtx 980 and outperform all of them for much less.
