I play alot of diffrent games but mostly MMO's Like WoW, Wildstar, ESO

but i also play games like BF4, Watchdogs, ect.

i wanna be able to max out my games because i only play on 1 of my monitors

and you mean the 780 correct?

Sorry Yes i meant the 780. Watchdogs alone will perform worlds better then the AMD, as it is built on Nvidia's GameWorks. If i were you i would go with the 780. And $395? That is a killer price!

What kind of Games will you be playing? Some are optimized better for Nvidia, and some are more for AMD.

If your playing a mixture, I would get the 880 since you already using Nvidia anyways.
