Hey all, I'm on a ~$2k USD budget (a little more cuz im abroad in Japan) to beef up my computer from my 4770 non K and my gtx 760 4gb. I used to run surround 1080p, but japan is small so I'm going to go 4k. I want to future proof as much as possible, and I would like feedback on what I'm thinking.
Monitor: Asus PB287Q (i think if i wanna do 4k surround [12k] in the future this will be cheap and still good)
Option 1: 2x strix (or other) gtx 980 SLI
option 2: 2x Strix (or other) gtx 970 + 4790k overclocked cpu.
What I really wanna know is what model video cards really are fast.
will either of these setups last? If i get the 980's, I can upgrade later to a better processor (MB is asus maximus hero VI) and liquid cool, but for now the wife *cracks whip* has given me a budget.
oh, as a side note/wishlist item, I'm running 16gb 1600 patriot RAM, if there are better chips that would provide a *worthwhile* upgrade, please let me know. THANKS!!! ^-^
