I keep trying to find a reason to change my system and retire my SR-2 to server duty, but I can't!
This thing is still a beast and going strong. I am currently running two evga 780 Ti's and I am considering simply upgrading my video cards, with WC'ing of course, So, my question is which cards and which cards will definitely work?
I am running the Dell U3415W curved monitor, and I love it. I just think it time to upgrade the VC's and take it to another level.
Any thoughts, suggestions or other advice would be greatly appreciated.
TIA,
Rocky

    That's a tough one because I think you will not see much improvement using 980ti vs 780ti because the cpu will be limiting you. 980's will run cooler though and need less power and give a little bump in performance.
