You will be fine with your system. No problem at all.

Thanks one of my NVIDEA 9800GTX/9800GTX+ set in SLI went out on me and I can't find a "new" replacement. Going to use 2 of the MSI GTX 1070's in SLI and sell the good 9800 on Ebay. Thanks again. NVIDEA tech said my system needs upgrade of CPU to handle their 2 1070's.

For gaming don't bother with SLI. Most game don't support it anymore. Better spend the money on a GTX 1080 TI instead.

OK, then does my rig support an MSI 1080 TI, before I spend that cash?

Yes it will, your system would would have no problem with that. Only question to ask is if you need it?

Welll, my remaining NVIDEA GTX9800 will probably go out soon as did the one that failed. I might as well bite this bullet and not tell the wife. Thanks again for your time and assistance. Man, what would we do without folks like you. I will "pay your help forward".
