Case: Cooler Master Haf X w/ SuperSpeed USB 3.0 ($180)

Motherboard (modify for extra RAM and other things) : ASUS Maximus VI Extreme (when it comes out) ( expected pricing : $350)
Monitor: Asus PB278Q 27" Class Widescreen PLS LED Monitor - 2560 x 1440, 16:9, 80000000:1, 5ms, HDMI, DisplayPort, DVI, Energy Star ($650)

Will mostly be playing Tanki online and League of Legends.

In an ideal scenario 3x 660ti will beat a Titan. But given the memory bandwidth and SLI scaling, the Titan is a better pick for the real world.

It's a case of FPS versus frame latency and consistency. The 660 Ti's will most certainly put out more FPS, but the Titan will run smoother and more consistently.

I'm not sure why you don't throw GTX 670's in SLI into that equation as well for the same cost as the 660 Ti's and about the same performance as a Titan. Luckily for you, the GTX 780 will be released on May 23rd and the GTX 770 on May 30th. You'll have some more options at that point.

anyone know how to eliminate microstuttering?

two 680s will beat a titan so here you go

spoiler: three 660ti's handily beat two 680s, which in turn will handily beat a single titan

these are only synthetics. in the real world a single titan is the better choice: your power supply can be smaller, the motherboard can be simpler and cheaper, and no microstuttering or game compatability problems.

but the right answer is to wait until the next gen comes out as right now is not a good time to buy video cards.
