Got monitor, kb,mouse? Or need to get?

Coz the requirements for 1440p is much different than 1080p.

Some advice for ur setup,

1. Get psu locally, nt worth getting frm amazon.

2. Titans aint worth it. Rather u sli 780.

3. 8gb rams are more than enough.

4. With ur budget, settle for 250gb ssd at least. Samsung evo 250gb would be good.

5. U need till 8tb?

Should i get 2 titan blacks Or 3 780s? And which brand is better? I dont really like zotac and palit. either evga gigabyte asus or msi

Y u so fixated on titans? 780ti is shown to be better than titans. But the performance from 780 to 780ti isnt much and price diff is a lot. Another option would be 290 or 290x in xfire. You get better pricing and 4Gb VRAM. SHould bd good for your 1440p x3.

And for SLI/xfire, dun go beyond 3. Stick to 2. Coz 2 alrdy gt issues, 3/4 will have even lesser compatibility.

So i should go for Normal 780? No Ti's? Evga? Msi? Gigabyte? Asus? Well im not keen on AMD cause they do not have shadow play and some other features that nvidia has they dont! Oh ya! what should i go for my mobo? Asus maximus?

For gpu, if u aint watercooling, i recommend giga, msi or evga.

For mobo, can consider MSI Z97 Gaming 5, Asrock Z97 extreme 4.

You wont need 10k.

If you are really thinking to go for a good 3 2k Display. I would recommend AMD over Nvidia. No doubt it has no shadow play etc. But eyefinity setup is just simpler and easier to use. But since you want Nvidia....

If you go more than 2 cards, you will run into compatibility issues and also you gonna need an LGA2011 mobo and CPU to run it without being bottleneck.

MSI Z97 Gaming 7 + i5-4690k ~ $602
GSKills Ripjaws 1866mhz 2x8gb kit ~ $215
WD Purple AV 4tb ~ $468
Samsung EVO 250gb ~ $154 (AMAZON)
MSI GTX780 6gb Twin Frozr x2 Gaming ~ $1600
Seasonic P1000 1000w 80+ Platinum Fully Modular PSU ~ $339
Corsair Obsidian 750D ~ $220
LG DVD Drive ~ $21
Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit OEM ~ $115
Dell U2713H 27inch eIPS Panel x3 ~ $2145 (Problem is this, this monitor is gonna EOL very soon)


IF You wanna save some money.

QNIX QX2710 Evolution II SE A- PLS Panel ~ $279x3 ~ $837 from Qoo10 but take note the warranty got to ship back to korea.

Total ~ $5879 with Dell U2713H, $4571 with Qnix
