As the title says... which gpu should be enough for me i will be playing games like BF3, crysis 3, far cry 3, metro series and etc. very gpu demanding games and i want to max out everythin at 1080p not beyond that. I have only 1 monitor maybe ill use another in future.. and i render too

i7 4770
corsair vengeance 16 gb 1600 mhz
corsair tx 750 watt psu
24" monitor and maybe ill sometimes hook it up to my 32" HDTV

To be honest I suggest you get 2 GTX 770's. Together the performance is better than a GTX Titan. Also with two of the 770s you will have 4GB of Video Memory or 8GB if you want to spend extra for the 4GB versions of the card for better performance on multiple monitors.
 


That's not correct - in SLI you have the vRAM of the lowest card - so 2x2GB 770's would give you 2GB.

What he said.
770 is more bang for the buck.
780 is more bang...period.
 



Where did you come up with that info?

I think the GTX 770 is a great value and more than sufficient. I can run Far Cry 3 at max settings without AA on my GTX 670 which is not nearly as good (but contains the same GPU). I would buy the cheapest GTX 770 you can get your hands on. Then in the future, if you run into a game you can't handle, simply add a second GTX 770 in SLI.
