I have an offer for $1050 on one but between ebay and paypal that will go to about $910. I can still cancel i believe but sli seems to be bad on many new titles.

    That's up to you, question is are you going to miss the extra power that you have on titles that will utilize SLI well? Don't forget, you can disable SLI game specific in the NVCP. So if it is not playing nice just set it to one card. I would keep them both personally.
    Personally, as long as the cards support SLI, I will continue to buy two cards.

    They are Great Folding GPUs
     
    Why not help find a cure with all that GPU power ?

    Game support is Hit & Miss for SLI or even dedicated PhysX

    I'd keep them. Yes not every game plays well or even supports Sli, but for the ones that do, it's awesome.

    I wouldnt, but almost every game i play does not use SLI. If games you play do use it, keep em.

    I am on the same boat but with lower end GPUs. Some Games I play have sli while others don't. So will get a 1080 and sell my two 980s. One titan x pascal should be sufficient unless you have 4k and like really high fps at max settings. If you don't need the money from this sell, why not keep them. I am only selling mine since I am two generations behind. If not, I would keep one.

    dump them ASAP.

    1080ti will be announced in a matter of days, will be very hard to get good value when word spreads of upcoming 1080ti.
     
    i had a very hard time to get rid of maxwell titan x when 980ti was released.
     
    just my 02 cents.

    If you have two titan x's you probably have a fair amount of disposable income. In that case, why sell it? What are you going to be doing with that 910$? It's not like you actually need that money, right? After all, as soon as you sell you'll basically be eating a loss on whatever you paid for that card less the resale recoup.
     
    Buy once, then sit on it until you are less than happy with it. That's my personal rule. 
     
    And instead of reselling, I personally prefer to gift it to someone deserving. High school students who are getting into building computers without much money of their own, classrooms who might want to do VR... my last GTX 1070 was given to a buddy who is home from Iraq and recovering from PTSD. Playing video games seems to really help.

    If you prefer to go to a single card solution then dump them of course.

    Keep both and never go SLI again? Still better then the upcoming Ti's. I think it is absolute bonkers to spend that much money on those 2 cards only to take a loss so quick.

    No need for selling them  if nvidia does only show gtx 1080Ti, then no need for selling titan xp    GTC 8-11 may this year pascal refresh or volta.

    I'll offer a counter point. Sell as soon as possible. I've recently went from a txp sli to a single txp and I sincerely couldn't be happier. I've had multi gpu setups for close a decade and it always involves some amount of tinkering to get this working right. Especially in the last few years as sli seemed to really go out of focus for most developers. It's so much nicer to just set the game settings and go without having to research custom sli profiles to get the most of out of your games. I was also pleasantly surprised that the majority of the games will stay close to my preferred [link=mailto:3440x1440@100]3440x1440@100[/link] specs without sacrificing a lot of eye candy on a single txp.
     
    What helped the most is that apparently txp availability is still pretty scares. I was able to sell my txp on craigslist for $1,200 a few hours after I listed it. I'd say sell now and as quickly as possible, before Ti becomes available and devalues the txp.

    I'll take it off your hands for more than what you'll get from that eBay price.

    Do what I do...both for Folding @ home.
     
    Game on one, and fold on the other.
     
    A single Titan X P drives 4K wonderfully.
