Right now I'm looking at crossfire r9 390 nitro cards because of the massive amount of memory and it performs quite well and I'm not bothered by it's power consumption.

 

Should be noted that I'll be running these alongside an OC'd 6700k and 32GB of DDR4-2133.

Wait for Polaris and Pascal?

I would rather go for 980ti (if u are in US, im sure Canadian prices are higher).

 

If its not urgent then wait for Pascal (June) and Polaris.

you are already spending this much...a little bit more and you have a 980ti

you would have way less problems with a fury x or 980ti but 390 crossfire would be more powerful indeed.

 

i would wait for next gen though.
