gtx 780 sli vs gtx 980 ti

[rizzee]

would a gtx 780 in sli out perform gtx 980 ti?

[sprouze]

I don't think so.. 980 2-way SLI only gets about 6-10 fps more than a single 980 Ti

Is price an issue in your life?

If you have one GTX780 already, then getting another is the best solution If you game at 1080p.... BUT IF you plan to go 4K gaming soon, then you would benefit from a GTX980Ti,..........

Two 780`s are faster than one 980Ti, BUT (CAVEAT HERE) it ALL DEPENDS on What game and What code. If you are talking about EXISTING GAMES, then the 780s kick it FOR NOW (but not later).

....... BUT if you WAIT to see what the AMD R9 290X has to offer, you may fall off your chair at how much juice and Power you can squeeze out of your pocket-money.

NOTE
Game makers will not cripple the GTX780 market for YEARS.

P.S.
Games on an SSD run great via a GTX780.

MOST Spinning drives are too slow now for the GTX980Ti.

getting a second GTX 780 can be one of the worst things you can possible do because

1.
3GB RAM = Bottleneck
2.
Nvidia is known for shady practices in their past (GTX 970 VRAM ISSUE) and recent situation regarding the GTX 780 ( Just go and take a look in their community forum in the 700 and 600 section. There has been a huge outrage regarding the crippling or letting down the Kepler support)
3.
The newer drivers somehow cripple the performance of all Kepler GPUs (GTX 780,GTX780 Ti, GTX 770 etc.) or dont optimize the performance at all, resulting in a 500 $ (500 tahts only the minimum remember some ppl paid up to 800 $) beasty high end card, which is barely 1 year old get its as:s whooped by a 200 $ low budget card GTX 960 (Maxwell) in Witcher 3.

I personally think that the current GPU offerings from both companies aren't fully capable enough for what 4k needs to run effectively. I'd say wait for DX12 and Pascal architecture to fully develop and deploy. For 1080p 144Hz or 2K gaming there are extremely effective cards out now, just think 4k is too far away for now. Next year will be different.

Tons of forums say that even a TitanX or SLI 980s can't fully render even close to 60fps with 4k...its not worth it then.

^ this

we need atleast 2,5 more years perhaps even more to think about playing 4k all max no drawbacks and tahts only for current games.

I have two 780 SLI with 6 Gig of memory on EACH card. No ram issues here!!! LOL Check out EVGA they have the cards.

It gets a lot more than that. A single GTX 980 vs a single GTX 980 ti, the 980 ti only gets 10 more FPS than the normal 980. A 980 2x sli vs a single 980 ti, the normal 980s in sli get 20-30 more FPS than a single 980 ti.

My answer for SLI vs single GPU question is always: get single best GPU you can get. Because 980TI will perform just fine now and later, when the price drops and you want an upgrade you can add another one and use SLI configuration then. If you already have one 780 and adequate PSU, then just get another one.

This is my situation right now. I have a 780 3GB looking for a upgrade and Im stuck at 980 or 980TI,because on 1080p I cant really tell the difference. I've been searching through the internet and finally find here and get my result here. 980TI

[Haxalicious]

Get a 980 Ti it is true that two 780s perform better but only slightly, and the 980 Ti is a lot more power efficient.
