SLI 970's or GTX 980Ti?

[orangecat]

So I found a cheque i forgot to cash and now I got an extra 300$ in my account and I'd love to upgrade my rig with it. I'm not sure if I should see about getting a second GTX 970 or selling it off and buying a newer single card. Surely a 970 can be found for cheap if I look hard enough but a single card would be better.

 

Your thoughts?

one single 980ti, SLI comes with problems, and its cheaper + sli bridge.

I would Sell your Existing 970, and go to a newer 10 series card.

Go for the 980ti.

980 ti for the win. single gpu over sli is always recommended by LTT too unless you have cash to burn and want to be fancy.

Would recommend selling you're current card and going for a 1070, they go for around 400

1070 is a good alternative to 980 ti, they are very similar in performance so just try to get the cheaper card. I have both gpu's and the 980 ti seems smoother to me in some of the games I play like overwatch for example.

980Ti is cheaper ($260 on EVGA B-Stock, anyone?) and faster by a small margin, as well as a better OC'er.
