So i currently have:
a 3 year old Asus mobo (can't see model number on it) but was top of the line when I got it.
i7 960 3.2Ghz quad core
24GB ram
2 2TB Samsung F3 drives (which have worked really well)
AMD radeon 5870 1gb gpu
corsair 850 watt power supply.
I'm trying to figure out: Should I build a new system? or just add a new gpu to my current rig. I was thinking of either 770's in SLI or a a 780ti
Would either of those options work? or would I have a bottleneck somewhere else in my current rig?
Background: I do a lot of gaming, most of it is handled with ease on my current rig. BUT I recently ordered the Oculus Rift, and I want to be able to play Star Citizen and other newer games at full. (or damn near full)
I also do a fair amount of video editing.
I have 2 27" LG screens that I want to run, and it'd be nice to have the option of a 3rd screen/Oculus which is driven by HDMI.
Thanks!
