I've been tossing the idea for months of buying an X34 and pulled the trigger this morning. I plan to invest in a pair of 980 Tis when the new chips come out. But I want to know will I have any *major* issues running WoW in Ultra as is?

Before you answer, I bought a SAMSUNG UD590 28" monitor in 2014 and I tried for funsies to run WoW in 4k and it was no problem. It's actually my CAD monitor for work. But I think the X34 is a totally different beast.

Will I have any major issues raiding at that resolution with those old cards until I inflate my piggy bank again?

4770k @ 4.2GHz OC, 16GB DDR3 G.Skill Sniper @ 1833, ASUS Sabertooth Z87, PNY Nvidia GTX 780 x2

Thanks!

WoW has decent SLI support but it is much more a CPU bound title.

I had issues with 4K though, didn't scale properly, unless they have patched something recently. I haven't touched it in a few months. 2560x1440 I regularly push 90FPS in the overworld looking out across a lot of models at maximum view distance. Raids are usually smaller environments, but with a lot more effects, it bounces around a bit there, but still well above 60FPS.
