GTX 650 - 1GB can't do SLI, and if it could it wouldn't do a good job... 1 GB of VRAM isn't enough even for 1080p gaming on a single monitor.

GTX 650 Ti Boost - 2GB models I believe you will require for SLI.

Then 650W should be fine to run them both.

Just making sure you're aware:

GTX 650 = Doesn't support SLI
GTX 650 Ti = Doesn't support SLI either
GTX 650 Ti Boost = Supports SLI, G-Sync, and Nvidia Surround

It says it has SLI ready on the page. Want me to link it?

There are 2GB 650's, but im not seeing any that support SLI.

I believe Azza is correct, of the 650's only the 650Ti Boost supports SLI. And it does come equipped with 2GB of DDR5.

Have you considered a single more powerful card?

with team elite 8gb 1600mhz ram with 5 120mm case fans and 1 cd drive can i run a gtx titan or should i play it safe and get a 980

A Gtx980 is faster than a titan for gaming.

GTX 980 is way better then Titan for gaming, GTX 970 would be enough too.

Nah, GTX 970 and 980 are best graphics cards currently and lot more stable then dual-GPU R9 295X2.

Not really, 8 Gb is still quite enough for gaming and 1600 Mhz CL9 is very close to optimal performance for Intel PC. You wont get much performance at all from higher Mhz.
