Single GTX 880 vs Dual GTX 770 for Triple Monitor

[JustSandhuIt]

So i was wondering if I should get a single gtx 880 (when it comes out) or 2 gtx 770's in sli? I will be using a triple monitor setup. Also i dont want to spend any more than $600 on my graphics. Im used to console gaming. This is for my upcoming build. I've started ordering parts but I'm not sure what I should do for my GPU. Its going to have a 4790k on the Asus Z97 Deluxe. I'm thinking about using 3 Asus VN247H-P. (I don't want to spend too much on triple monitors as it is my first build). I will mostly be playing FPS.

Your best bet is paying 700 Bucks and get R9 290 in crossfire , thats the best for triple monitor setups

Do you want Nvidia just for the sake of it or do u have your reasons as the R9 290 in Crossfire will eat anything alive in Triple Monitors.

I have no reason. I just like NVIDIA lol

There is no reason to be a fanboy. 2 290s will dominate a single GTX 880 and SLI 770s. There is no way a single GTX 880 will beat 2 290s as a single 290 already performs equal to or greater than a 780 and an 880 will not be as powerful as SLI 780s

sli 770 will be better, just make sure to get the 4gb version, people have preferences, that's understandable, like lamboghinis and ferraris

Also, I will be okay with one gtx 880 if three monitors will work. If the gaming is too laggy I will just use one and possibly get a second gtx 880 in sli idk when. I would prefer one 880 or two 760 ftw because those are more affordable. I want to get my card(s) asap. I'll only wait for the gtx 880. Also I want nvidia because I may or may not hackintosh (; .
