More money than sense obviously, spend 1/2 as much as this dude did and get 85-90% of his performance, then spend the other half in 2 years and have a rig that destroys this kids in performance.

You don't buy a Titan for its performance. You buy it so that you can tell people you own a Titan. It's like buying a luxury car. Sure, you could get there just as fast in a Rover Metro, but that's not the point. It's a status symbol and chicks dig it.

it's called upgrading when appropriate.

Why would I spend $3k+ now for 100% performance, when I can spend $1.5K now for 80-90% performance, and another 1.5K in 2 years for 150-175% of the performance of the original you spent $3k on....

>>51701926
I am assuming the only thing upgrading is the GPU as the base intel platform is fine for 5+ years.


Instead of two GTX titanX's now, get 2x GTX 980. That's ~$900 instead of $2,000+. And you get mostly the same performance except in very extreme cases.

Spend the money saved on a GPU upgrade in 2 years, in two years that would mean HBM2 or 3 memory and likely 30-50% performance gains over the titanX.


VR is really going to drive GPU development in the next 12-24 months as well.

This is a terrible time to buy 2x titanX just because the new Nivida cards are releasing in not that long and they are actually meant to be used for VR, unlike the titan Xs.

Even where I live in washington DC you can have one bedroom apartments in nice areas of town going for more than that.

now is a terrible time to do that because new cards aren't that far off and they are going to be the first cards oriented towards consumer VR. If you plan on getting into VR at all, i'd recommend NOT getting 2x 980Ti.

I've got a Titan X as well. Bought it for the VRAM for 3D renders and editing raw video formats. If you literally only game the 980ti would've been a better choice and costs basically half as much.

Not to say you won't be happy gaming with the TX, but if I recall correctly, the 980ti out-benches it in that department, and you need all the juice you can get as you mess with resolution scaling and/or UHD. At 1080p my TX can only push 150% resolution scale on modern games. 200% so far has always been unplayable (like 20fps).

You sure are dense. There's a difference between monetary and personal value.
Monetary value is potential value. It's measured in how many things you could get if you traded it. Unto itself however it is useless. The thing you want to maximise is personal value, how much your stuff is worth to you. If I have an empty account and a cozy apartment with a good internet connection and a beefy PC, I'm actually better off than someone who just hoards his money and is never going to buy anything until he's old and decrepit.

What's wrong with living in a nice apartment, having a good ass computer and saving literally thousands more because I didn't waste my money on 2x TitanX and instead got 980s.

If all things are equal, same apartment, same income, etc.

At the end of the day, i'm still better off.

Sure you'll have a more powerful computer by 10-15% for a few years. But in 2 years i'll still have that extra $1000+ I didn't spend that you did. and assuming everything else is equal, you now have to spend $1,000 more to get the same performance I will get for your original investment. The only thing you gained in this was 2 years of 10% better performance, and to me that just isn't worth the money at ALL.


It's not as if that 10% performance is the difference between playable framerates and unplayable framerates.
Either way I will be playing the same games you do at mostly the same exact settings. I just didn't spend money stupidly.

Yeah I went into that, I personally dont think $1,000+ is worth literally 10-15% fps gains, especially when you're already at the high end of things getting 2x980s. And if he DOES think that's worth it, then he has more money than sense, and likely has very little savings, or is being supported by his parents.

The point I am trying to make is that 1000$ more don't matter if you have enough money and don't wish for anything more. This might be hard to comprehend without the right mentality, but I've been there, and in that case it's a legit option. You see month after month how the cash piles on your account and you couldn't care less because you're pretty satisfied with what you have and if you could choose you would rather have more spare time than more money. And one day you think, what the heck, if I don't spend the money I'm basically working for nothing. That's the day when you decide to get yourself a really nice triple 4k monitor build or whatever.

"4k gaming" is misleading as it makes the need for the horsepower sound uncommon, since 4k monitors still aren't anywhere near standard.

With most everyone still somewhere between 1080p-1440p, it's going to be about DSR, also called "resolution scaling." It's actually termed differently in different games (in BF4 it's just called "Scale," in Shadow of Mordor you just turn the resolution setting up beyond your native res and it performs DSR).

Like I said, on my single Titan X I only get comfortable framerates on a 1080p monitor at 150% DSR on games like Witcher 3, Shadow of Mordor, and Battlefront. Still looks clean as fuck, but 200% DSR looks like the super-pristine promo videos you see for games.
