    GTX 780ti sc ocx cooling or GTX 980?

    Well I am basing it on 3dmark 11 scores , so gtx 780 ti is 13496 , and gtx 980 is 15240 . I always buy the card with the fastest 3dmark 11 score.

    gtx 690 sli vs r9 290x crossfire

    A fairer comparison to gtx 690 SLI ( 4 x 680's ) would be a HD 7990 quad crossfire ( 4 x 7970's) , this would give a 3dMark 11 score of 23680 (http://www.kitguru.net/components/graphic-cards/zardon/sapphire-hd7990-quadfirex-review/9/) this gave at that time 64fps in Crysis 3 @ 5760×1080. So...
