Lynx_132a1 Posted September 6, 2016 Posted September 6, 2016 Hi all, I want to build a PC that will give me good results with DCS and VR. I am thinking about SLI Titan X(p) and a 6850k for now but is 2 New Titan x pascals are worth it if we consider a long lifespan for this build? I mean if i go with sli 1080s will i get a close performance for a considerably lower cost? The PC that i am going to build must have a long lifetime (I won't play all games on VR) and i will probably stick to 1080p and 1440p. So should i go with 2 1080s or a single New Titan X or Sli New Titans?
Justin Case Posted September 6, 2016 Posted September 6, 2016 I think the word is that DCS doesn't scale very well with SLI. But wait until someone with some experience can give you some advice... http://www.masterarms.se A Swedish Combat Flight Simulator Community.
Lynx_132a1 Posted September 7, 2016 Author Posted September 7, 2016 No SLI support for VR, just fyi. So rather than 2 cards, one more powerfull card will give me better performance with VR?
Fab Posted September 7, 2016 Posted September 7, 2016 Titan or 1080 solo, is more than enough for VR...

Lynx_132a1 Posted September 7, 2016 Author Posted September 7, 2016 Titan or 1080 solo, is more than enough for VR... I understand but i won't be able to build a computer for a pretty long time. While i have the oppurtunity i wan't use it as effective as i can.
SkateZilla Posted September 8, 2016 Posted September 8, 2016 Oculus and SteamVR APIs dont support SLi at all, so it would be a waste of Money to build a SLi System for VR.
