Two or One GPUs?

TYLES · Feb 10, 2014

I've never ran two graphic cards together so I wanted to know if running two (2) GTX 650 ti is better than running a single GTX 760. Any tips would be great. Two 650 ti's run about the same price as a single 760, btw.

If it helps I run all my games at 1920 x 1080.

You can't run GTX 650 Ti in SLI. They simply don't have the connector.

The 760 will run better, quieter, and cost less to run, go with the single

Unless it the 650 ti 'Boost' then no sli. Go with the GTX 760.

TYLES :

Two 650ti's are slightly faster than a gtx760. Approx about GTX680 levels.

I would always recommend one decent card, as opposed to two midrange cards. With a dual sli setup, you can have driver issues, microstuttering, additional power requirements, heat etc. Also, your limited to the frame buffer of one card. i.e if the 650ti's are 1gb variants, then you are limited to 1gb vram. Having two cards does not double it up. Good idea to factor these in.

The 760 is a beast of a card for the price, and will serve you well. Personally I'd take the 760 over the sli, that way at least you can add in an extra 760 to get titan level performance if you wanna upgrade in 6 months if performance isn't what you want it.

good spot. that's true. Can only sli the Boost version, making the post a moot point really
