Got a 780 Ti atm and will add another into a two-way sli in a couple of years. How long will it be until all games start pushing all settings to low?. Just want to play games, don't care about settings
Thanks for all the help!
Cheers

Lol, on low settings?! These cards in SLI will probably be pushing ultra for at least 5 years to come. On low probably 10+. I think the cards will probably die before only pushing low settings.

To give you an example: I had a very old system that I stopped using it for last 5 years until last month i decided to rebuilt that machine and make it operational. Specs:

Core 2 Quad Q6600 (released 2007)
Nvidia GTX 260 (released 2008)

I just added ssd and it works amazingly fine. I played tomb raider and in medium settings (1080p) i was getting 40-50 fps avg which was amazing for a 6-7 years old gpu. It plays cs-go, dota2, L4D2, AC2,3,4 on either medium or high settings easily.

A GTX 780ti will probably start aging after another 5+ years easily or 10 years if you SLI i assume x2.

Hope that helps you figure out how long it'll last :)
