Hello all,
 
As the title suggests, I am looking for some Tri-SLI 970FTW+ Benchmarks.  I have seen a couple online, but they weren't all that impressive and were making think that my dual SLI is the best.  I am weighing the pros and cons of adding another 970 to my system during my rebuild which I am in the process of purchasing my components for.  I have $800 extra budget now that my watercooling plans are out the window. 
 
THanks

    I personally would wait for the releases of AMD 390x and see how nvidia responds. Sli at 1080 is useless with these cards one pulls off playable frames with most games on ultra. Sli for above 1080 with these cards produces a stutter, some see it, some don't

    This was shot at 1080 with 970s sli, frames stayed above 60. Hope this helps

    I am setup dual sli now with the 970's with 1080p monitors without issue.  I wasn't planning on dumping them at this time unless my experience on 1440p monitors I am going to pick up while I gather my components is horrific.  Everything I have seen thus far does not seem to indicate this will be a problem.  At normal sli right now, I don't stutter in benchmarks (auto and free mode) nor do I stutter in games.  I typically run dual 27's right now and occasionally go surround with a third 27.  I am looking to get about 3 years out of my cards.  I did the same with my 670 FTW's so I am looking for the same.  I was curious on tri sli more so for the higher resolution monitors.  I am sure some people would run tri with 1080P, but I am looking at this for my overhaul.
     
    Thanks
