You only need one 780 tbh. If you went for 2 then no streaming card will fit(these are pointless imo anyway).

You've done a very decent job on the cable management! Looks very nice for a first build![]()
hmm i see thanks, what those imo mean by the way? ^_^
IMO= In my opinion![]()
its not. That is unless you're one of those weirdos who are determined to stream at 60fps @1080p. If so I'm afraid thats the wrong CPU for the job. 30fps@720p is the norm for a reason. Don't get me started on streaming Battlefieldlolz ok so u dont think the streaming card are really needed

if you find it really impacts on game play and you'd rather not upgrade its a viable alternative.Allrite thanks

MSI gaming edition 780ti. Good value, quiet and its red and black. I'd also recommend the Gainward 780ti or the asus DCUII. I personally really like the Inno3D iChill, but its really not in your color scheme. There are 290x alternatives however the one to go for isn't in your color scheme either. Obviously there are 290x MSI gaming, DCUIIs and as an interesting alternative a powercolor 290 PCS+ but they're not the best you can get.Guys i finally got the money back from income tax now ima be able to afford a high end graphic card now i need help chossing im looking towards 780 ti or r290x but now i would like the graphic card to not run to hot that way the fans aint that loud also i would preffer if it had a backplate or colors red and black
Personally I wouldn't buy a 780Ti right now with the high end Maxwell cards just around the corner.

Which games do you think you'd play the most?

The only issue I have with that logic is that if you start waiting for the next best thing you will be perpetually waiting forever, the GPU market moves that fast these days you may as well grab the best you can at the time.
The offerings from MSI and Asus with the 780 or 780Ti seem to fit the bill here quite nicely and colour scheme to match, plus if heat is an issue and fan noise the 290s are just bad unless you go for the Windforce offering from Gigabyte but it only comes in black.
I plan on getting a 4k monitor to so which one you think would be better 290x or 780 ti but i herd the sound level of 290x on a video and it scares me, now i never built a pc before so idk which brands are better so should i go msi or asus ??
If you get a custom R9 290x 3rd party cooler than it will have better overall 4k FPS than a GTX 780ti. Keep in mind though that with either card and 0x AA you will still be short on power to run up to 60FPS. You need a MINIMUM of two custom 290x's in Xfire or a GTX780ti SLI.
Also should note custom 290x's run about 75ish degrees C. Which is about the same as many GTX 780ti's while some being more quiet than some 780ti coolers. As of today the quietest card I have seen beating nearly ever single card out there(high end cards that is) the Sapphire R9 290x Tri-X cooler. Its very expensive due to its reputation as the fastest 290x you can buy(thanks bitcoins) so a 2nd place tie would be the MSI Gaming or the Windforce 3 Gigabyte card.
GTX 780ti's on the other hand.. really any aftermarket card is worth the money. Just in comparison with 4k they lose their value because they are indeed slower with a limited bit bus data path. Still very capable but most 290x's can be found for cheaper which is why i recommend them over 780ti's.
direct cu 2 card?Ok guys i just bought the gpu + a white led strip i will update the pics once it arrives for the gpu i went with asus 780 ti
