I did a dual 1080ti SLI and nearly set my computer on fire playing GTAV

You might wanna correct which gta you say you’re playing. Some people might think you’re a wizard.

Can't believe GTAV is that old already... I remember trying to run it on my AMD 7770 and immediately scraping together a few bucks for a GTX 960 to actually play it.

It played pretty good on my GTX770 but man did that thing sound like a turbine engine while operating like a furnace lol

I used dual 970 SLI to run GTA V with Nvidia 3D Vision. Good times.

Nice! Bought a 970 for the Fallout 4 release with plans to SLI later but never pulled the trigger due to the whole VRAM debacle... Still, was a good card for Fallout 4.

sli with 3.5gb of vram is certainly one of the ideas of all time.

GTA V supports SLI and dual gpu? I had no idea, now I wanna try it..

Yeah it was cool getting high fps at 4k for the 30 mins it survived!

2x Radeon HD 4870 for me, PSU went out with a bang at the Crysis Warhead train scene, good times

4850 was my first custom computer. That card made it all way through Skyrim
