rosewill blackhawk ultra
evga supernova 1300 g2
2x evga titan black sli
evga 770 sc w/acx for physx
i7-4930k
either asus rampage iv black or asrock extreme11
32gb gskill ripjaws z @2133mhz
1tb samsung 840 evo
4tb hgst deskstar
corsair h90 clc

i will be purchasing another titan black sc later for 3xsli to run 4k surround and another psu to have enough power to run them. but id like some more input. should i wait for x99 and ddr4 or is the 4way x16 on the asrock worth it? (i will likely upgrade gpus in about 3 years) price isnt really an issue.

How does it look? Overkill/delicious. Be careful with 3way SLI. I can't look up the link right now but I've seen cases in 3 way SLI actually perform less than 2 way SLI, or at least the returns are very diminishing.

As for waiting for DDR4, I can't comment too much but I've read that the performance gain in gaming isn't expected to be worth the cost.

TheConsiderateIlliterate :

ive been reading a lot about 3xsli and 4xsli for surround mode including 4k surround and the 3 card always had a good increase but the 4th had basically noting or worse in some areas but a titan 2xsli setup showed a high end gpu in physx configuration had good benefits in fps. so i believe that will work well, the ddr4 isnt the only point of waiting i suppose, the x99 would be paired with the new haswell-e 8 core, but i'd rather not wait till theend of the year.
