So I have been racking my brain for weeks. But i cant decide if i should pickup a second GTX 980 or wait for Pascal. Now it should be noted that because I work at a large consumer electronics retail chain, we have an employee accommodation that allows me to purchase the GTX 980 from EVGA for only $ 375.00. So with that said I cant decide if I should pull the trigger on the GTX 980SLI or wait for Pascal.

My 1 980 allows me to play AC Syndicate at 30 FPS everything maxed @ 1080p.

 

That price is great so I would go for it tho.

Just remember: Random people on the internet ALWAYS know more than professionals, when someone's lying, AND can predict the future.

Unless you feel like waiting like 6 months, just pick up another 980.
