GTX 760 sli is a very bad move...
You will have only 2GB Vram and most new games gonna use more.
R9 280 or 280x Crossfire is better in the same money because of 3GB vram. Even better GTX980 now in the same money like 2xGTX760 give you better perfomance.

My old setup last month was 1 760gtx oc and runs every game maxed out. 2 way should be even better. And the 760 and 980 in SLI...is TO much money for that improvement.

And what about sli MSI N760 TF 4GD5/OC

But what your saying is, the 760 oc in SLI is oke? Do i REALLY need 3vram memory ? The single 760 oc was amazing. So i bought 2 ones for SLI....i wanted a intel and Nvidia setup. Not going back to AMD or ati cards.
Nvidia was always better then ATI or AMD

In your position i will return the 2xGTX 760 for a single GTX 970 for 350€ and i will save some money.
The GTX 970 in some games is better then Titan. Also you will not need an 860w PSU for a single GTX 970. You can get a good 650w.

Oke thats an option, I always wanted to make a SLI gaming rig. Maybe ill get 2 280x for 250 euro each. MAYBE.
But the only thing is the VRAM. i have a 29INCH 21:9 widescreen monitor. Not 2 or 3 monitors. So is it worth it to return those cards?Already shipped to my house.
I want to make the Red/black Corsair 450D case....looks so cool

I'm going to disagree with this one since that entirely depends on your monitor resolution. If you're running 1080P then a single GPU will suffice, but if you're running some crazy resolutions like 2560 x 1080 (ultra wide), 2560 x 1440, or 4K that is when you will absolutely need a second GPU.
