Hello all! I have been trying to make a decision regarding my best option is in terms of upgrading my build and was wondering if any of you could help me out. As of now, I have three options to move forward:
1) Get a 980ti and a 3440 x 1440 Ultra-wide monitor.
2) Get a 980ti and a 2560 x 1440 monitor.
3) Wait for pascal and then upgrade.
I currently have an Asus 780ti OC and am playing at 1080p. I have decided to move up resolutions to either 3440 x 1440 (Ultrawide) or 2560x1440. If I went the Ultra-wide route I would either be getting the x34 Predator or the PG348Q from ASUS once it comes out. If I went the 2560x1440 route I would be getting the Acer XB270HU. Would you recommend anything else with my two options?
I am used to playing on a 144hz TN panel but long for the IPS quality and require the best experience I can get with what I have available to me in terms of hardware and fps performance. The only reason I am considering a 2560 x 1440 is my worry that one 980ti won’t be able to handle the 3440 x 1440 at a reasonable frame rate of 40-60fps. (Preferably 60fps but I have heard with gsync 40fps can look very good)
Right now, I'd only be getting one 980ti with the option to go SLI in the future if I so desired. As I have said, my major gripe that has me second guessing my options are if one 980ti card could handle the 3440 x 1440 resolution or not and run relatively smoothly. With all this being said do any of you have any suggestions for me? What should I do? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
