Hello
My gtx 760 had broken down.
So I want to buy new graphic card and I have some option:
1. I can buy the 980ti but I want to play in 3 monitors 1080p and get 50-60fps for the next
3 years...
I know that today in 5780*1080 the 980ti can provide my needs but I am fear that in the next year it not be happen.

2. I will buy lower graphic card (r9 270 or 750ti) for the next 4-6 month until the next gen will come like the gtx1070/1080/1080ti
When they will come out I will buy one of them and I understand that they will be more powerful than the 980ti something like 50% better?

This option more expensive than the 1 but maybe can provide my needs to play on 3*1080p

So I am in dilemma and I don't know what to do?
The 980ti will run games in 3*1080p on 50-60fps for the 2-3 next years?
Someone know when nvidia will announce the next gen graphic cards?
The 1070/1080 would really so powerful?

Thx a lot to everyone!

I don't know about all games at 60 frames on three screens, maybe on low settings. If you don't care about how the system runs now, then getting a low end video card may be a good idea and wait till next set of cards are out. As long as you...
You will need SLI dual 980 Ti for triple screens to get 50-60 frames unless you are on lower settings and will need a fast CPU as well.

It's very hard to say what is better to get or to wait. You can get a 980Ti now and play for a while, then get a second one cheaper in the future for SLI when prices go down and next gen video cards come out.

Thx for the reply:)
Today, The 980ti can run in 50-60fps all the games on 3*1080p , yes?

This is nice idea to buy another gtx 980ti in the future but I need a computer that support sli for this and my motherboard and psu not support Sli
So I will need to buy another Motherboard and psu and this is expensive and prefer to sell my 980ti and buy the next gen...

If you had been in my place what you would prefer?
To buy 980ti now? Or wait 4-5 month until the next gen and today buy r9 270??
