A single 1080 is better than a Titan X, so you shouldn't even consider a Titan X.

I used to be quite active here.

Well... a 1080 SLI would be great, yes, but only if you have a 1440 144hz or a 4k monitor to make use of it. If you don't, then buying a new display would be better than buying the 2nd card.

But if you buy a new display you'll still need a second card. xD
