Brink of madness

So i have been hunting a GTX 670 FTW 2GB card for a few days now and i can not find a new card at a decent price, i already have one and its pretty damn easy for me to sell at around 250USD.

Now shall i spend the extra 369.99 USD for a new card or sell my card and get 2x GTX 760s?

Benchmark wise the GTX 760's come up pretty close and sometimes faster than a GTX 780 at the same price or in some cases less.

Things to concider:

1- I run 5760x1080 resolution
2- I got a 850 watt power supply
3- I have a 4.6ghz 24/7 stable 2600K on a z77 Mpower
4- Water cooling is a must for me with 34°C ambient heat :'(
5- I have a odd mental problem of things must match or be the same brand.

Umm that's all. Check back in 72hrs for you answers

And thanks :D
 
Sell the 670 and go for 280x in crossfire. Little bit more than 760 SLI setup but far more performance and they have a huge overclock potential under water. Also 280x is faster than a 770 and sometimes barely just behind a 780 in some games. Goes to show how good that card is for the money.
 
Might as well buy a second GTX 670, I think they are even slightly quicker than GTX 760s (or at least they were when they were released).

With such a high resolution, more VRAM might be benificial depending on the games you play, in which case I'd go with the GTX 780 (Ti). Or get an R9 280x like NeverBackDown said if you don't mind what brand you have.

Well a second EVGA GTX 670 FTW is really hard to come by at a decent price in the USA (granted i live in the caribbean) and what about the cost to preformance for a GTX 670 SLI compared to a GTX 780 Ti or R9 290X or R9 280?
 
780ti is slower than 670 sli. 780ti is on par with a 290x(both watercooled) and lstly the 280x is much faster than a 670 and in crossfire is even more noticeable.
