Should i SLI 2 Nvidia GTX 780's with this Mobo ?

You aren't going to get twice the power from two cards. You'll get roughly 1.5 times the power, more graphics give diminished returns. It will double the power consumption and heat though.

You certainly can. Remember it is always better to go with one graphics card over two so you might want to look at just one 780ti instead for the time being then maybe down the road adding a second one when they become less expensive. You'll save money now and get even better performance later.

David, I SLI 2 Nvidia GTX 780 Ti's and they work like a charm with this motherboard.

You can you aren't going to see a huge important unless you are going to be gaming on higher than 180p resolution, I have one 780 and it runs everything on ultra settings no problem

As long as they are the same series and have the same amount of VRAM they will SLI perfectly. I would recommend putting the card with the highest clock speed in first/top PCIe slot.

SLI compatable so you should be fine but if you are going to be superclocking I would put more of an investment into your motherboard, it is what's going to be tying you components together and is arguably your most crucial component outside of your cpu and if it gets damaged it's the most painstaking to replace. So are you willing to circuit so much power through a mid range model or through a higher end model. I suggest the latter

I use two of these in SLI and have been running everything I play on max, even new games. You could probably do the same with just one, to be honest.

I think for normal resolution it may be fine but from what I remember the larger amount of memory is needed for running higher resolutions. The 780 is now a dinosaur. Not sure what your budget is but I'd go for a gtx 970.

I have a Radeon 6770 in it currently, and there's room to spare, so I'm sure the 780 will fit. :)

Yes. With the use of an SLI bridge (usually comes with motherboard or can be bought on amazon for cheap), you can use up to 4 of these at a time. Personally, I bought one. Then another when I had the money. Two of these is 10-15% cheaper and 10-15% more powerful than a GTX 780 TI

Absolutely. It also depends on how many video cards you will be using. SLI should be OK for 780, not sure about Titan.

Yes it would. It would support sli as well. I have a 780 (bought it way before 780ti got released) and I will throw in another 780 soon!

It's handled a 780TI, a 4570k OC'd to 4.5, and multiple outbound power draws (external hdds, iphone, microphones, etc...) without a hiccup for months. I imagine you could SLI/Crossfire any card combo and run a stable system without a problem. Tri-card and further setups might need a little more juice, depending on the cards you go with.

I have a 600W power supply, and won't be getting SLI. I've cranked up everything to max in every game I've played on it, and it hasn't had any issues. 650W is plenty.

Also, the 750's are not SLI compatible. So regardless of which motherboard is being used you will be unable to SLI any of the 750 style GPU's

Absulutely, any 780 would work just fine. I myself have 780 gaming series working on it. Basically any card would work with this, even a titan and 780 ti.

Frank,This link (https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/Z87A/) will give you all of the answers...but yes, it does support SLI.J

Hi j. If you want it for surround it's fantastic but if you use it in one screen even 1440p I would recommend 780ti unless you go sli like me. I ran 3 lg 1440p then get red of them. I now using two screen 27" lg 1440p 60hz for work on it and 27" asus 1080p 144hz for heavy gaming. It is like dream. But in my opinion right now go fo 980 it will be 15% higher than 780ti and the price around 500-600. You can go sli around 1200$. GoodLuck

You can only SLI with the exact same chipset. Meaning, you need this card, as is, x2 ($1000+) (also you really wouldn't need that for anything, the 780 on its own can do a beast of a job)

I believe the recommended minimum power supply for two GTX 780 cards is 800W. From personal experience though, it is always better to have a power supply that exceeds the recommended minimum. I think your best bet would be to go with the 1000W.
