P.S. was wondering whether to get the fx 8350 or the 4690k, later on, I may be looking into adding another 970 in there so i chose the sli mobo

980ti could be until,the end of the year, we havnt really got any "real" info on it. The 300series will be out by then.

To much heat = a nice $60 after market cooler from artic, plus I think AMD will step up there game with cooling, maybe throw in a liquid cooler like the 295x2 lol, power consumption, meh what's an extra $50 a year REALLY gonna do?
