i want eye cant and the 144fps for my monitor, maybe 2x 1080?

2 1080s would be better than a 1080ti even in games with poor scaling, so its up to you

I have some saving cash saved and was wondering what would you guys do? Go with 2x 1070 and save some cash for other components or 1 1080ti. My budget it around $1,200

My current system is i7-7700k with a 1070

Also I am going to get in to some video/photo editing.

i7-7700k @4.8GHz

1080 ti, always go with a single gpu over sli/crossfire because single gpu will always be supported while sli/crossfire depends on developer support

depends on the game. in some, 1070x2 will crush the 1080ti, in others, the 1080ti will crush the 1070x2. id sell the 1070 and get a 1080ti just for the ti branding, but it depends on the games you play, how much you care about looks (i much prefer the look of 2 cards), ect. 

13700k, 3070, 32GB@3200
