Hello,

For 2 and a half years I've been using my Asus GTX560-Tİ (SLI) graphics cards, I'm having some fps problems (I guess because I'm using 2x monitors?)

my current system is
i5 2500k
p8z68 v-pro mainboard
2x GTX560ti
128gb ssd+ 2x 1tb hd
16gb ram
powersupply 750w

which graphic cards should I change with?
GTX780 or R290? and if I go for GTX780ti will my CPU bottleneck?

which brand is better at GTX780?

thanks

Then my first choice will be Gigabyte because they have windforce 3x oc coolers, which asus or msi don't have and these are better coolers than msi or asus coolers.
Then my second choice would be msi, because their Twin Frozr coolers are good and are similar performing to gigabyte's 3x coolers.
Then Asus because it's Direct cu II cooling fans are just as good as msi. I will avoid zotac because their cooling isn't that geat and that brand isn't know as one of the best.

The reason I am choosing between coolers is that most of the gtx 780 or 780ti are equally clocked. Otherwise I would have gone for the gpu that is higher...

R9 290 or gtx 780ti are better options than gtx 780.
2500k will less likely to be bottlenecking gtx 780ti. So 2500k with gtx 780ti is a fine choice.
Sometimes it might depend on what games you play. Some will favor gtx 780ti and some will favor 2500k and also gtx 780ti.
So it's upto you if you are ready to spend that extra buck on gtx 780ti then that's great and will favor your 2 monitor setup.
