Posted August 21, 2015 I'm not getting all the Titan X's at once, so don't worry. I'm getting 1 every 6 months and when I get the 4th I get all the watercooling components I need, the Reason for every 6 months is so I can hear about future cards and maybe not get the 3rd or 4th, but if I have all four by the time a new god card comes around, I may aswell still get it. (my dad said hell do it if I get good grades) - since i'm going into highschool, and basically I'm wondering WHAT PSU is best for this? because I asked XPhantomX (the guy who has a $40,000 PC on Pcpartpicker and he said that 1500W is almost capped. so i'm asking what PSU will this build need? it's not completed please note that. - Message from XPhantomX (the guy who has the 40K build) Well, i like the build, these are the things you need to look out for. First thing is that my AX1500i is barely handling my system right now, so i strongly suggest you getting 2 PSU's. And as far as i know, there is no 144Hz 4k monitor atm. Also about the headset... I thought it was a nice change from my HD800 (lol). And i'd like to see your finished build here once it's done My PcPartpicker List - http://pcpartpicker.com/p/Hc8psY also how will I get two PSUS (I'll run one 1200W for the GPU and maybe like a 800W/1000W for everything else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 21, 2015 SNIP What is this rig for... 4x Titan X is overkill for 1440p 144hz..... and the 3rd/4th cards only add like 10% more fps so you are throwing away $2000 if gaming get the 980ti instead and at max just 2 of them Desktop - Corsair 300r i7 4770k H100i MSI 780ti 16GB Vengeance Pro 2400mhz Crucial MX100 512gb Samsung Evo 250gb 2 TB WD Green, AOC Q2770PQU 1440p 27" monitor Laptop Clevo W110er - 11.6" 768p, i5 3230m, 650m GT 2gb, OCZ vertex 4 256gb, 4gb ram, Server: Fractal Define Mini, MSI Z78-G43, Intel G3220, 8GB Corsair Vengeance, 4x 3tb WD Reds in Raid 10, Phone Oppo Reno 10x 256gb , Camera Sony A7iii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 21, 2015 I hope you know 980Ti performs the same at ~$350 less. Also to let you know 4-Way is highly,unstable. I highly suggest getting 2x 980Ti and you are set. As for the PSU with 2x980Tis a 850-1000w is good. EVGA p2 is a good one. Also the ram... Is like $350 overpriced. What in the WORLD do you need this PC for. A 5820k 16gbs of ram and 980Tis in SLI would probably be more then enough for what you need. i7-6700k Cooling: Deepcool Captain 240EX White GPU: GTX 1080Ti EVGA FTW3 Mobo: AsRock Z170 Extreme4 Case: Phanteks P400s TG Special Black/White PSU: EVGA 850w GQ Ram: 64GB (3200Mhz 16x4 Corsair Vengeance RGB) Storage 1x 1TB Seagate Barracuda 240GBSandisk SSDPlus, 480GB OCZ Trion 150, 1TB Crucial NVMe (Rest of Specs on Profile) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 21, 2015 There's going to be a lot of new stuff come out in the two years it will take you to get these cards. I have to ask, though, why? What on Earth do you need this for in Highschool? You could go for 2 980Tis, get good performance and spend the money you save on a car or something. EDIT: Also, no SSD in a $8k build? You will probably want to get the Asus PG279Q when it comes out over the PG278Q. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 21, 2015 Author please, just help me. not fucking ask for one of my cards. and in 2017 I think they'll still be a god card, because they won't crush the monolopy on them, and if they do they will release another card and thats why i'm waiting 6 months and if my purchase date is near a event date, then ill wait and see if Nvidia is going to release anything. + NCIX and Linus got all the news 4 me so i'm getting this until a new card comes out.

Posted August 21, 2015 The 4th Titan X can make installing the drivers and even posting a nightmare, the guys at NCIX took an entire day just setting up the 4way SLI Titan X rig. The third one is a waste of money since after 2 diminishing returns are ridiculous, and it won't make you any more futureproof than getting dual 980 tis, Also, 3 titan X will be bottlenecked by you CPU, so being fully honest, chances are you won't get much after 2 cards, and 980 tis are a bit faster for gaming. If you are really decided on that config...guess an EVGA 1600W T2 is as good as it gets http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-SuperNOVA-TITANIUM-Crossfire-220-T2-1600-X1/dp/B00R33ZBQU/ref=sr_1_35?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1440168070&sr=1-35&keywords=psu&refinements=p_n_feature_keywords_two_browse-bin%3A6906988011 But please, at least don't get a 4th one, it's not only a waste of money, it will make your gaming experience worst in most cases. 4way SLI is not something that has been optimized properly since almost no one has it.
