G'Day everyone,
I know there are a lot of posts on here asking for advice on this topic, I have lost count of how many I have read. But I haven't come across one that has covered which would be the better upgrade for 3D vision.
My specs are:
I7 990x @ 4.1/ 4.4 /4.8 or 5gh on different OC profiles
Asus X58 Sabertooth
OCZ vertex 4 SSD (OS)
OCZ vertex 3 Max IOPs (games)
1 TB HDD (storage)
8 GB Dual channel Ripjaws @ 2133
GTX 580 Asus Direct CUII sli @ 904/4200
Antec 1200w
Benq 2420T 3D vision 2 (1080p)
Battlefield 3
Metro series
Farcry 3
Skyrim
The Witcher 2
Crisis series
Just a few games I play in 3D (settings turned down!)
At the moment I'm tossing up between two Gigabyte GTX 770 OC windforce x3's for $860

Or one Gainward GTX780 3GB Phantom GLH for $840.

I know I'll get more performance with the two 770's but I like the idea of being able to add another 780 in the future when needed to run new releases in 3D.
I know I'm still running on the old 1366 but I haven't had any CPU bottleneck problems & as far as I can tell with extensive research is I should be able to run PCI 3.0 fine on my motherboard but I'm not sure if the two GTX 770 would bottleneck my old hardware.
Cheers for any advice!
