2 x GTX760 Benefits

Hi guys

I bought a hell of a Rig from PCS

However is there any benefit to having 2 x 2 GB Graphics Cards? (I have them in SLI Format... does that pool the resources?)

Have you just placed your order? The spec seems a bit unbalanced for gaming. Most games support well SLI but rather than having 2 lesser cards you could get a single stronger gpu. Running 2 GPUs causes more heat and noise, the power supply seems excessive for the spec you have.
 
No I already have the machine itself however its been returned to PCS for warranty repair... :/
The power supply is there for upgrading purposes... thinking maybe SSD drive and various other bits too...

The 2 cards run quietly and never kick up too much of a fuss... but im just wondering if it is worth going for a GTX Titan or if my spec will serve me for the longhaul

If you got it and you run games without any issues I don't see why you need to upgrade the gpu.

I wouldn't think a Titan would give much of an improvement to sli 760s anyway (unless you get specific SLI problems on certain games)
