Who plays videogames, and what are you playing?

I've decided to say fuck retarded consoles, their games just keep getting more simplistic and more full of annoying douches. Building a new i7 780 SLI gaming rig. Debating watercooling to overclock the piss out of it.

STOP!!!!!!!!
Wait for the R 290 cards to come out with new coolers first.

AMD R 290 @ $399 offers comparable performance to the GTX780 @$499
On top of that, the new crossfire setup on the R 290 cards is outstanding AND they are now tossing in Battlefield 4 in for free as part of their new bundle.

Only issue right now is that the reference R290 and R290x boards have shit coolers.

GTX780 is a great card and nicely built but I would definitely hold off for until AIB releases custom cards (end of November, early december).
You could build out your mega box but just use the onboard video for now.

If you just want to go all out, the a pair of GTX780ti's are the way to go unless you are pushing a huge 4k monitor. Then R290x (with aftermarket cooling) is the way to go
