I know there are only a few differences in the two PCs. But the ones that ARE there are HUGE. Whic PC here is more powerful. And budget wise, which one should I get. Thanks in advance guys

Definitely the first one. Something inside tells me the second is A LOT more expensive.

i dont like sli , so the second or a rig with GTX 780 ti (cheaper than Titan but about the same 3D performance) .Moreover, Titan (or GTX 780 ti) will draw less power than GTX 770 SLI.

Are these set in stone? Pre-built? Or are you willing to change some of the components inside?

If no changes allowed, then first computer, not as strong but strong enough, even if I am a stranger I don't want you throwing money away (actually I'm not sure if a Titan is stronger than a 770 SLI or not, either way it's still more expensive)

edit: heh saw some of the [+$$$] brackets, I guess this is from CyberPowerPC or a similar site? Still, the dual GTX 770s, even if they have a lower overall allowed VRAM usage, it's still a hell lot more economical than a freaking Titan

I would go with the first build if I were you. It's pretty solid build, powerful enough.

Oh yeah guys BTW 2 770s are A LOT more powerful than a Titan. Because a 770 is more powerful than a 680, 2 680s equals one 690. 2 770s beats a 690 by about 10-15 FPS

I'd get the first build but with a 780ti instead of the sli 770s.
