Choosing an all-in-one cooler is likely a smarter option when you need high performance at 5Ghz. If the single Titan XP model falls short, you can always upgrade later.
It works well for 4K but not at full ultra resolution. For that level, you'd need to adjust accordingly.
I love getting the top-tier setup for the task—especially for 4K. If you're okay with dropping to 1440p Ultra Wide or standard 1440p, then 1080 (Ultra Wide) and 1070 (standard 1440p) work just fine. The choice really comes down to how far you're willing to step away from the ultimate settings. One 1080 at medium levels can still function at 4K, though it's not the absolute best. Honestly, if you’re willing to pay, go for the Titan XP—it limits compromises. But even that isn’t always optimized for every game at full resolution. If you don’t mind a bit of trade-off, a single 1080 will still get the job done.
Ensure your supported games run on SLI and get two 1080p displays.
