Do you think I will have to worry about upgrading any of the hardware in the next 2 years? I have a single 1080p 40" flat screen that I use as a monitor. The SLI works great. However, there are a few games where the PC seems to struggle. Farcry 4, it seems to bog down to the 40's in some parts of Kyrat. There are also times in Star citizen where it won't maintain 60 FPS with both GPU's running at 98%. There are a couple other games that the SLI doesn't handle. Kind starting to worry me.

I plan on buying some new games like Witcher 3, Mad Max, Fall Out 4 and The Devision when they are released. The graphics on these games look amazing and I am hoping that this PC will be able to run them on max settings. I have kinda gotten spoiled to the eye candy. Anyway, it takes me a while to save for a GPU so I am wondring if you guys think this will handle the titles I listed (which are being released this year) or should I start putting money away to upgrade the GPU's. It takes me about 6 months to put away $600 for a GPU.

Can I make it another year with these GPU's?
 
The computer already exists. It has since November of 2014. The PSU is awesome. It has no problem handling the PC. Did read my actual question? Or just skim over the list of componants.

Trying to decide if I can hold out another year or two or start saving to replace the GPU's.
 


Either way I'd start saving as you're going to be spending reasonable money on a new rig or new GPU's...

That said, I'd look at replacing the GPU's first as the rest of the system seems solid enough. That said if you go for something more powerful I'd see if that PSU does need an upgrade. That model isn't widely thought of as brilliant - but it's obv. not a show stopper for you right now.
