I'm looking to upgrade my computer for the years to come but I need to plan it. I know I'll need a stronger power supply for sli and I'll change my motherboard to one with more x16 pci slots. I plan on reusing my i7-3770 processor.

I'm just torn between gpu. Is it worth it to sli my gtx770 2gb if I have a 144hz 1080p monitor or scrap the motherboard idea and just get a gtx 980 or something. I'm looking to make this last at least 3 years so I want something future proof.

You're going to get better performance from a single card than doing SLI. Also future proof is a really dumb phrase as nothing is future proof.

When I say future proof I just mean something that will have me playing the latest games for at least a few years. I realize the future is impossible to predict.

Also all the benchmarks I have seen show sli outperforming or matching most of the expensive gpu for half the cost so what makes you say the performance when using sli being worse?

You're Nvida card is going to catch fire and take you with it

not really worth it, since most games are designed for console and can run on mediocre hardware just fine

sli is shit, and a 770 is fine.
come back in two years.
