recommended PSU for a 4 Titan x build?

I must find the truth in you my young padawan... Money is not to spend when savings can made... I know it doesn't rhyme but it's close...


Just get this and you should be fine... May the (Ge)Force be with you...

12GB of VRAM, which will be needed in a couple of years, I'm not upgrading this unless another god card comes out thats why i'm getting a Titan X. 12GB vs 6GB, and even that 4 AMD Fury X's beats this but I want something I can overclock and I'd rather have 4 Titan X's besides 4 980 Ti's yes, I know there is no difference but I HAVE the best. :D

The GPUs themeselves will be outdated long before you are capping out 12 gigs of vram, i can see someone making the exact same arguments as you with the original titan, we still don't need 6 gigs of vram and a 970 beats it at a third of the price, that's what will happen with your config eventually, GPUs develop too fast, there is no way of getting more than 2 years of future proof. And if you wanna waste a lot of money (that's what you're doing, no other way to put it) getting condescending on people trying to help you won't get you anywhere dude, stop acting like a brat, wanna waste 4K on overpriced GPUs, fine, but don't disrespect the people on the forum.

Get this and be happy kid. Be time 12GbS of VRAM becomes a thing the Titan x will be obsolete. I guarantee that you'll be better off with this then 4-WAY SLI Titan X's 32Gb of ram and a 5960x. Heck make it 3-way sli if you want but this EXACT build with 3-Way SLI compared to yours the FPS difference in gaming will be next to the nothing. Even with 2-Way SLI you'll have a better experience because 2-Way is way more optimized for 2 cards instead of 3 or 4. @Austin Borg

Does your dad like own a corporation or something cause you are making him effectively toss away a few thousand dollars on something rather pointless.

And it is kind of irresponsible too.

 

seriously though.

 

cause 4 way titan X's would be a waste and have so many issues with SLI. 2 way 980ti would be the more responsible option, also 980ti's i believe have better overclocking potential too.

Hey bro i like yo *vomits on you*

Did you even bother to look at my build? Probably not in you wanna waste thousands of dollars just get a Xeon E5-2699v3 along with Quadro M6000 but show me benchmarks where my Build doesn't perform nearly the exact same as yours in gaming with the 3-way 980Ti ( Even though 2-Way is more then enough ). You won't.
