This may seem like a stupid question, but I'm going to ask it anyway. I am considering starting a new build, but a friend of mine has offered to give me his EVGA Geforce GTX 770 Superclocked and his Cougar Challenger B Case. Before I upgraded to the GTX 980 I also had a 770 and instead of wasting the two graphics cards I thought I would SLI them in the new rig. My question is with the specs I list below will I run into any bottlnecking and what kind of performance can I expect with this setup?

Specs:

AMD FX-9590
Corsair H80i
Asus Crosshair V Formula-Z ATX Am3+ Motherboard
G.Skill Sniper Series 8GB DDR3 2133 Memory
Samsung 850 Evo 500GB SSD
EVGA GeForce GTX 770 2GB ACX (2-Way SLI)
Cougar Challenger-B ATX Mid Tower Case
EVGA SuperNOVA 1300 G2 1300W 80+ Gold ATC PSU

Haha it should still be tremendous just some games limit cause of Vram. But you have the cards try some SLI games and enjoy. But of course a single 980 would be better overall. but raw output for power might go to the SLI
