Yes for sure. Is that what you currently have or you plan on getting? Two 760s are better value if you haven't bought the 780 yet. If you have, the 780 with run surround fine, but you may have to turn some settings down.Sprayz said:

Truth be told 2 760s isnt that much greater then a 780 and sli from what ive seen has gotten SLI has gotten alot better and if you have resolution as of 1440/1600p getting a 780 then sli in the future would be more of a benefit imo

Yes, but does Nvidia surround needs Sli?

SLI is very stable. AMD's CF is not completely, the two get confused a lot. I think that the 760s would perform better for surround and would be better value then the 780.

Not really sure maybe one GTX 780 is good for me, plus I could always upgrade with a new GTX 780. Right? Maybe just two screens?

The 760s are cheaper and faster. Plus you could always add another 760 in 3-way SLI.

But takes more power.
And 2 Sli GTX 760 will be more expensive than the ASUS GTX 780 direct cu II.

Just get a 780 now, assuming you don't already own it, ignore anyone saying SLI 760's. Yes a single 780 will be fine for surround and you get the added bonus of having the option to SLI later on or just upgrade to a more powerful single card.Why do you suggest the OP ignore 2x 760s when they are cheaper and faster then a titan? Doesn't make sense to me.

For 650$ he can roughly get the same performance with 1x 780 compared to 2x 760s for 500$ and if he chooses to add the 2nd 780 in he will have more then a gtx 690 performance. If hes willing to pick up a 780 now and knowing he wants to sli the 780s will be better performance wise and with the 9970 coming out more then likely the prices will drop on the 780s to counter amds release

If you want to compare 2x 780, then compare it to 4x 760, which will undoubtedly be cheaper and perform better. You act as though 2 GPUs is the max. It isn't.

You clearly know very little about SLI scaling as that is complete bull. 4x SLI isn't officially supported and will not match the performance of 2x 780. Please show me a bench mark that proves you right or, alternatively, stop spreading misinformation.

Personally OP grab you a EVGA gtx 780 and call it a day. If you need more power im pretty sure prices will be lowered due to amd's release of the 9000 series and sli would give you more then gtx 690 performance and that way you will be in a better position and wont be so worried when the new 800/900 rebadge series comes out. To me having 2x 760s just trade blows with a 780/titan doesnt do it for me when i can get 1x 780 to do the same thing and have room for sli and be set for a long time and benefit better performance

1. It doesn't trade blows with the 780, it handily beats it.2. Its cheaper, by a lot.
3. You say that you can SLI the 780 yet completely ignore that you can SLI more then two 760s
You never respond to what I say, you simply repeat stuff over and over again
I just think long term and for ME if im using Nvidia surround or a 1440p monitor or something to that extreme ima think more about the 780s in sli and i know that would benefit more then 2x 760s more so if i only had 2-way sli mobo and wasnt you the same guy that tried to pass off info about the gtx 7990 with its coil whine/crossfire issues?

With the $150 you save on the 760s it would be easy to get a 4-way SLI MB. That was me, I didn't realize that there was more then one reviewer saying these things. If I had then I would have agreed. Thankfully someone gave me more info and now I agree that the 7990 is a tough choice.

How well does 3-way 760s scale because i hear 4-way doesnt do to good

3 and 4 way only do badly on higher end cards, generally the 780 and titan. The reason for that is a CPU bottleneck even with an i7 extreme at 5Ghz. But since the 4x 760s perform not too much better then 2x titan it shouldn't bottleneck and should scale fine.
