MONITOR RESOLUTION: 1920x1080 (H236HLbid)
I'm trying to decide on a Graphics card for my first build. I plan on upgrading this rig over time. I was planing on going with a GTX 780, but after reading that seemed a bit overkill for my monitor. I would like to eventually upgrade/add monitors to my setup, but that won't be for a while. So I was thinking, maybe save $200 now and go with a GTX 770, and after a while upgrade to a GTX 780ti, and then after that go SLI with the 780ti. What are your thoughts? I don't have the $$$ to go with a GTX 780ti now, which is why I was planning on going with the 780. If I get the 780, I will just add another 780 and not bother with the 780ti. Any suggestions here would be appreciated!
