EutelsecQ Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Hello everyone! I'm thinking of upgrading my graphics card to TITAN X ( 2x-in SLI mode) but my PSU and CPU are kinda holding me back. Therefore, I need your advice. My Pc specs are: i7 3770k -Stock 7970ghz club3d -stock corsair vengeance 1866mhz 2x8GB-stock Corsair 850w psu Western digital 2tb and seagate 1tb HDD 128gb SSD corsair neutron corsair h100i liquid cpu cooler gigabyte z77xud5h mobo. what would you guys suggest? is my psu powerful enough to power 2x titan x(in sli)? Thanks in advance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IVIYTH0S Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Why not overclock your 3770K? It's a great CPU and has a great deal more to offer you for but the cost of your time. I'd also recommend waiting to see what the R9 390X's bring to the table. You may not want the Titan X's anymore if the 390X's come and bump them out of 1st place! hard to say whether or not your PSU will cut it, I think it will based on a power supply calculator I just ran (with Titan Blacks though) and a 4.5GHz overclock on your CPU. It gave me a draw of 673W, and I'm guessing the Titan X may be equal or more efficient than the Titan Black. And again, the 390X may be more efficient still, we shall see.

EutelsecQ Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 You are right. I guess i'll wait for 390x. Any news on release date? I also need a good gaming monitor. Any suggestions? Thanks a lot. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bp9801 Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 What are you looking for in a monitor? Size, resolution, 4K, 3D capable, G-SYNC/FreeSync capable, budget? You won't need to SLI the Titan X unless you're running multiple 4K screens. One is more than capable, especially for a $1k card. The AMD R9 390X is expected anytime between now and July (potentially), so you may be waiting for a little while. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
