Not me im happy with my ROG swift at the moment
Same but not to say I won't go 4K 144Hz in the future.
Since the announcement of Titan X, I've lost all comprehension of what next-gen gaming actually means.
The XBone and PS4 Consoles marketed themselves as next-gen although with a wide gap between them in term of performance, with the max being 1080p and 60fps.
So, I merrily bought the GTX 970 believing that I'm going slightly further than the current next-gen standards. But with 8gb cards rolling out and the new 12gb card, doesn't this mean the current so-called "next-gen" is already out of date?

Xbox One and PS4 are next gen compared to the old consoles.
Compared to current PC specs, they are pretty average. Most of the time they can barely scrape 1080p @ 30fps.

1440p @ 60FPS would have been true next gen for consoles, guess if we're lucky they may hit that next time round in 5 years time. In 10/12 years we might see 4k consoles.

With TVs either 1080p or 2160p, what on earth would be the point of a console optimised for 2560x1440???

Yeah didn't think of that lol
So that when the resolution inevitably has to be compromised, the games then turn out to run at 1080p at least!
I think 1440p is probably the sweet spot for a single Titan X.

I'll be overclocking mine and hitting 4k with it, hoping to get between 40-60FPS with all titles Ultra settings. Either way it'll be better than playing on a single 290X because I don't have crossfire support and from what I've seen from the reviews an O/C'd TX is on par with a stock 295 so should be at the top of the 60FPS scale.

i want to get SLI titan x but still rolling with 1080p 60hz
Defiantly overkill! 1 x 980 would give you that performance at those settings IMO

Jeez, a GTX 960 is enough for decent settings @ 1080P. 1440P and 4K are a totally different thing.
SLI Titan X for 1080P rofl !!!
