Good afternoon peeps. I've thought on this for many days now and I'm wondering do you think I should go through with it. Purchase 2 titan Xp's and hybrid cool them in SLI for 1440p/144hz -gsync gaming later to ugprade to 4k 144hz gsync gaming. Or do the 1080Ti's, which one do you guys think is better why, why not, price does kind of matter but i'd like to hear arguments from each side and decide. Or.. go with 1 Titan Xp( watercooled full block) VS 2 1080Ti FTW3 (hybrid cooled in SLI.

30C is unrealistic, even with full cover blocks you'll see mid-40s and peaks in the 50C range. You can easily cut down on the noise with more radiator area and quieter fans. No reason a cool system can't be a quiet one.

If you are going to do all-in-ones with SLI you might as well go with custom water cooling. With the right blocks you can get one SLI fitting and then only still have two fittings coming out of the GPUs, off to a pump/rad/res combo and you are all good. You can toss the CPU in while you are at it with something like the H240X2 or H220X2 from Swiftech.

Or pick up EK's prefilled quick disconnect stuff if you really don't want to mess with custom cooling.

the titans are just a bit faster than the 1080ti

for price and performance the 1080 is what i would get

for watercooling them surelly there is more parts to choose from, iirc the xp cucould use the same water block as the standard 1080 ti founders but not completelly sure about that

the only use for this setup is games?

if that is the case, a sli configuration lately has proven to be more problematic than a single powerfull gpu, some games will not use the second gpu at vall, others will work weird ir have bad stuttering problems, microstuter alot

others will work but will not justify to have two gpus in the case for a small speed bump

theoretically two 1080ti will be faster than one xp, if you manage to make them work, both in the cooling solution front and in the gaming front

Phases, I meant the power phases ,yes. there won't be a full waterblock. There will be the original air cooler with a n eVGA cpu cooler strapped on to the GPU die itself, keeping the GPU at like 30*C under full load. won't go any higher, I don't mind my fans being loud as I'm wearing headphones that cancel any sound from outside, so I use a dual scythe typhoon on each card rad that blasts at 3000 rpm moving all air out of the case.
