Ok. Thank you.

guys, wanna ask if a 750w psu support 980Ti x2? (with peripherals, 4 ssd/hdd, headsets, amp)
Oh yeah.. and will a Xeon E1231 v3 bottleneck 980Ti x2?



Curious question before Pascal,
is it better to get dual 980Ti or sell off my current 980Ti and get the new 1080Ti/X80Ti?
if its dual, any cheap while good SLI motherboard out there? Im using Asus Z97M- Plus Matx board plz.. >w<

Thanks all sifu and senpais! (gives everyone a hug)

Quite risky to run GTX980Ti SLI on a 750W PSU.

Bottleneck or not is totally depend on the game itself, but considering Xeon E3 1231 V3 is a quad core octa thread CPU, it is very hard for a game to fully utilize the resources of it.

I would recommend you to wait for Pascal instead, GTX980Ti isn't cheap now, if you decided to stay with GTX980Ti SLI, wait the price drops after Pascal announcement, it could potentially save you a lot of money.

Are you running 4K resolution?

Im not sure which to run actually.. Im playing on 1440p and 980Ti seems to have some issues capping the 60fps for some games at max. So i wanna get something to boost it up. But if i have to get 980Ti, i had to change my motherboard.

If your max settings include max MSAA, GameWorks settings (HBAO+, HairWorks etc.) then surely you cannot run at 60 FPS, those settings are FPS eater

Considering you don't have a SLI ready mobo and PSU, I suggest you to tune down the settings to achieve 60 FPS for the time being while waiting for next gen GPU, even if you get another GTX980Ti, you won't get a correct SLI scaling if the game doesn't support SLI (no SLI profile from games developer and Nvidia), so you end up running the games with single GPU only.

So.. its better to get a single gpu then? Im not sure about my The Division settings cuz Im out atm.. but Ill go and check it out on Tues..

It is always better to run single GPU vs dual/triple/quad GPU, less issue and hassle.

You think how much i can sell my 980Ti reference for when Pascal is out?

This depends on the price or Pascal, if the price is same like what they are pricing the 900 series then I guess it should be around 2.3 - 2.5k.

Edit: Need to factor in warranty status, card status etc as well.

Hmm.. warranty wise.. i got the card like 1-2 weeks after its out.. while status is idk.. i left in the case ever since i pasang my rig haha
Tho thanks Terence :3

Another help..lets say if i have a gtx980ti+i7 6700 combo..can u guys suggest me a good gaming monitor around 1k+ for my rig

Acer XB240H or BenQ XL2411Z for glorious 144Hz master race

Thats QHD or FHD? worth it is it.hehe

What brand/model would u recommend for 1440p,144hz,g sync, ips monitor? Acer xb270hu is it good? For the price and performance?

FHD, QHD monitor ain't that cheap.

Acer XB270HU is first gen, XB271HU replaced it few months ago and it is the cheapest QHD IPS G-Sync monitor in Malaysia, we don't have many choices to make
