780ti SLI 1440p question

[Mightyashy]

Just got the Acer Predator XB270HU 27" monitor and wondering whether 780ti sli will be enough or am I screwed with the VRAM?

Cheers

With little or no AA you should be ok on most if not all games (for now).

Nah, just turn a couple of the settings down a notch and you'll be fine. 'Frinstance, I'm running Crysis 3 at 1440 FXAA enabled, with one 780ti, overclocked to 1250mhz on the core, and all I've done is turn shadows and shaders from very high to high and I'm getting 50-60 fps on average, depending wether I'm inside or outside, I've seen mid 40 fps occasionally when outside, but the game is still very playable and looks purdy too

I play at 1440p with 780ti SLI and it's been fine. It runs GTA 5 at a steady 60 FPS on ultra settings. I have had to lower 1 or 2 settings, but the settings made no real differance to the quality of the picture. The real test will be The Witcher 3, that could well demand a little more on ultra settings.

thanks chaps, good enough for me. assuming it should do me fine to skip this gen of cards and maybe the 980ti, gync should help too im guessing?

I'm currently running a single 780ti on a ROG Swift (second 780ti on the way ) and In GTA V the max I've used is 2950/3071 megabytes. That's pretty much maxed out with FXAA on MSAA off. But with DX12 the VRAM will scale to 6GB with two 780ti will it not?

I damn well hope so! There has been a lot of hints and rumors about mantle and DX12 finally allowing multiple GPU's to truly act as one, and combine VRAM.

It will only be on future games that implement the feature though.

There aren't that many older games that need more than 3GB though.

There's plenty at 1440. A lot of the console ports we've seen since the gen update are around the 3 gb or over mark.

Turn the OSD off and lower a few settings and see how you get on.

But the problem now is you're already thinking about vram limit.
