I am researching which PC to buy, but would like some advice on graphics cards.  Is the 2080ti worth the extra expense over a 2080 super for P3d v5?  Obviously the Ti  will give more FPS,  but enough of an increase to warrant so much money?  Would two 2080 super cards in SLI configuration be a better option than a single 2080ti?

 

Also will replace my 1980x1080 monitor.  Is it better to go 2K or 4K for P3d?  

 

I’ve been running the sim on a gaming laptop with a 2.8Ghz processor And 1080 Max Q graphics card. It is playable but settings need to be low to medium.

You can spend a lot of money on video cards..

If you are considering a 2K monitor (which I use), a single 2070 will actually do the job.

Not so sure SLI works with DX12 in P3DV5 unless it is coded to support mGPU (DX12 is a different beast has to be implicitly coded to work vs older DX versions where it happens in the driver)

At the present time, SLI is not supported in v5.

Thx for that.  I'm thinking the 2080ti is the better option for the extra vram.
