Overclocking: Maybe
SLI or Crossfire:Yes (2x gtx980)
Your Monitor Resolution: 2560x1440 (+ I'd like to play some games on my 4k tv)
Additional Comments:
In the future I will buy a 2nd gtx980 so I can use the SLI. Also I'd like to be able to instal the Pascal when it'll be available in 2016 (in case I'll have the money
)
My biggest concern is the cooler. I don't know for sure if it will fit and if it can take enough heat from the CPU.
Then I'd like to know if this motherboard would support the nvidia Pascal.
Why Are You Upgrading:
Last year I bought the Gtx980 and It's great but my Mobo and CPU are a bit out of date so I'll have to upgrade these. I also want a big case so I can play with stuff in the future. My old case is also a bit to crowded for a second gtx980.
I already picked the pieces but sinces it's my first build I'd like to know if it's compatible so I don't waste my money.
