Two MSI GTX 770 2 GB GDDR5

Gibby101 · Jul 13, 2014

I was wondering if i can use two MSI GTX 770 Twin Frozr 2GB GDDR5 to run SLI on triple moniters. I dont want any lag when i play games so is this enough for my computer. Also if there are any better options I am willing to look at them.

Have you already purchased them? What's your budget?

http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-770/specifications

A GTX770 will run three monitors - from One Dual Link DVI-I, One Dual Link DVI-D, One HDMI, One DisplayPort - up to 4 displays.
SLI will help power them.

Sometimes 4gb is better than 2gb - http://www.pugetsystems.com/labs/articles/Video-Card-Performance-2GB-vs-4GB-Memory-154/

Are these all 1080p monitors?

Gibby101 · Jul 13, 2014

I haven't purchased yet and my budget is around $350. And yea they are all 1080p monitors

i7Baby · Jul 13, 2014

GTX770's are about $300 each.

An R9 290 is a bit better and has more vram. for $380 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125500

alright so are the 2 gtx 770s 2GB good for triple monitor sli and will they lag or have slower fps than a gtx 770 4GB

Be aware that multi-GPU setups have issues with micro stuttering (but there is a potential fix here, but I can't verify it). Are you wanting to play at a 4k resolution across all three monitors?

i7Baby · Jul 13, 2014

As I said - gtx770 will run 4 displays if you want, so 3 are ok. 4gb will improve fps sometimes when you have 3 x 1080p monitors.

Edit - a 4gb 770 will cost more but not work as well as a r9 290 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125462&cm_re=gigabyte_gtx_770_4gb-_-14-125-462-_-Product

im probably not going to play at 4k resolution

Gibby101 · Jul 13, 2014

but im looking to get the gtx 770s and use them on my 3 asus 23 inch 1080p monitors to run games like battlefield 4 etc.

cyrofault · Jul 13, 2014

What resolution are you wanting to play at?

i7Baby · Jul 13, 2014

Gibby101 :

3 x 1080p monitors = 3k

Gibby101 · Jul 13, 2014

yea 3k

cyrofault · Jul 13, 2014

Resolutions are measured in width, not height. 1920 x 1080 is actually 2k. Thus, you will be playing at 6k.

Gibby101 · Jul 13, 2014

alright

Gibby101 · Jul 13, 2014

so is it a good idea to go for the GTX 770 2GB GDDR5 $309 on Newegg and buy the other one later to do sli on my 3 1080p monitors

i7Baby · Jul 14, 2014

Either that or a r9 290 then later buy another one and crossfire it.

Gibby101 · Jul 14, 2014

thanks for the help

Gibby101 :

It should be enough. The GTX 770 is pretty strong and so is the R9 290.
