Just a quick question, will I be able to overclock to 100Mhz with 2 SLI GTX 780Ti?

Thanks!

Yep. Assuming your copy of the monitor can achieve 100Hz. Seen a few reports of people only able to get 90 or 95. I've got the X34 - hits 100Hz and is a superb gaming screen.

Perfect, thank you! No need to shell out for new card just yet then

No worries bud. Enjoy it. Don't want to **** on your parade but I upgraded from 780ti SLI to 980Ti SLI, mainly because of this screen! It takes a lot if GPU grunt to power 3440x1440 at high hz

Haven't quite bought it yet, might just wait for the next version:

And I am guessing 1080Ti will be out around the same time, see if one of those will be able to handle the workload

It's not your cards that does the overclock it's the monitor / panel itself, Mine hit 100 straight out of the box but some people on here can only get theirs to hit 90 or 95 in which case some have been sent back for replacement.

Oh I see, thank you for the explanation.

In that case a followup question, do you think 2 * 780Ti would be able to run Witcher 3 on highest settings on this monitor? They currently do on my PG279Q ROG Swift 27

Yes though you'll want to install the .exe fix that makes the ingame cutscenes display at 3440x1440.

Got it, thank you very much!

It's delayed until 2017 now.

I only got 95, i was a bit depressed afterwards not getting 100

i lucked out with mine, barely any ips glow or blb, clocked to 100hz out of the box, got a great deal on it too

you do need at least 2 980ti's though. At that res on ultra, witcher 3 still hovers around 60-70fps. first world problems I suppose

Not everything maxed, that game is quiet taxing. I can't even manage that with a pair of overclocked 1080s with the fps dipping in to the 70s normally running around the 80s But make some tweaks to the settings then yeah, should run nicely.
