2 Titan X or 1080?

I got a Titan X currently. I don't what the price drop of the Titan X will be when the 1080 will come out.
I was wondering if I should buy another Titan X or I should go for the 1080?

Second Titan X if you want more performance. The 1080 will be a bit better than a single Titan X, but two Titan Xs would be miles better.

I've seen some go used for a reasonable(for a titan) price.. If you really can't be satisfied with 'just' a titan x :P

 

My personal opinion is it's not worth the upgrade.. But worth is relative.

 

If you won't benefit from some of the newer features with the 1080 I wouldn't bother.  If VR and multi display gaming or taking purdy screen shots in games is your thing, then it could be worth looking into.

Id wait till titans come down a bit and snag one if u can. If you have like 2x 980ti's or 2x titans id probably wait till the 1180ti. Thats my opinion anyway, there really isnt much of a gain if you have already bought 2 mad ass gpus.

I'd sell the titan X and go for getting two 1080s to replace it.

Various versions of the Titan X Going for $600-1000 on amazon used, 1080 MSRP of $600, and it's more powerful than a Titan X.

Specs: CPU - Intel i7 8700K @ 5GHz | GPU - Gigabyte GTX 970 G1 Gaming | Motherboard - ASUS Strix Z370-G WIFI AC | RAM - XPG Gammix DDR4-3000MHz 32GB (2x16GB) | Main Drive - Samsung 850 Evo 500GB M.2 | Other Drives - 7TB/3 Drives | CPU Cooler - Corsair H100i Pro | Case - Fractal Design Define C Mini TG | Power Supply - EVGA G3 850W

I've had it for awhile already (If you meant that it would've been better to have a 980ti)
