The Titan V card is for bragging rights only in a gaming context since it's not much more powerful than a single GTX 1080 Ti, so I feel it's a waste of money for the average enthusiast gamer. Now, this is a good value for professional programmers that are into deep learning and more.
I have two 1080 Ti's and I was able to afford them by selling both of my GTX 980 Ti G1 cards for $800 locally. So the difference wasn't much for both of the 1080 Ti's I bought, I sell my older hardware to pay for my upgrades. The rest of my PC is decent and this build should last me until 2020. The only major upgrades were the 1080 Ti's and the RAM when I upgraded from 8GB Corsair Dominator GT 2000 CL9 that were too expensive to buy another 8GB kit that would have cost me another $150+ when the 16GB 2400 CL11 kit was 99 bucks at my local MicroCenter and those perform great without having to overclock them despite being CL11. The RAM was almost free when my Corsair kit sold for 90 bucks locally.

I'm happy to see I'm not the only one with highend hardware! I have a 65" samsung but it's just the UN65MU6300, nothing comparable to to an LG OLED. However, it's still funny to see peoples reaction when I show them!
And don't feel bad about the case, I'm still using my Antec 900

That's not a bad TV when calibrated correctly, I also get similar reactions when mot people still think PC's only use monitors. I was actually going to buy a 65 inch Samsung KS8000 last year but the LG TV I bought was for some odd reason returned to MicroCenter and I bought it open box for only 2K, not bad for an open box OLED TV. I love gaming on my recliner and since my gaming room is downstairs, it's always dark and that actually is good for my OLED TV since I only have the brightness set to about 25% along with a dark screensaver/desktop wallpaper that prevents screen burn. HDR helps make the picture look brighter while having the brightness and such lower.
I plan to rock this Stacker 830 for many more years since it's a full size tower that will comfortably fit any build including EATX builds with lots of breathing room. I may buy another one if I can find them so that I can assemble my retro then-overkill build being the old school QX6700 and dual 8800 GTX I bought back in 2006. Too bad my Dell Ultrasharp 1600p 30 inch monitor from back then is dead though. I still even have both the Logitech G15 and G5 and both still work good. I mainly game with an XBOX One Elite controller for most games since I'm more of a casual gamer these days and my wrist isn't very comfortable with a dinner tray on my lap when using KB/M.

well the only problem with my samsung is that that it has lots of input lag when not in game mode. So when it's in game mode it turns off all the calibration and I'm pretty sure it turns the chrome to 4:2:2 from 4:4:4 in game mode. For movies it's great and I also keep my brightness low as I'm in my basement too. I'm mainly setup in my basement because my home theater consists of 4 JBL L16's ( 2 way 8" speakers) and a pair of JBL L100's (3 way 12" speakers). These things are so powerful that I'm not kidding when I say I could run a small concert with them. I have them in my basement so my neighbors can't hear me. I know they can but nowhere near what they could if it was upstairs.
I, however have my TV resting on a 6 foot desk shell and have a couch in the back. I still sit about 3 feet away from my TV at my desk though. The thing is I always wanted a large setup but before the only was to do it was with a multimonitor setup and the bezels drove me nuts. This 65" is the same effective DPI at the distance I sit as Im farther away not to see the whole thing. but when I'm in productivity mode I have what is effectively 4, 1080p windows open. If I really need some space I can put it in a 3X2 configuration

Your TV should have a PC mode that shouldn't increase the input lag much vs gaming mode. Try renaming your PC's HDMI input to "PC" and it would give you 4:4:4 Chroma. You may also have to use Input 1 as that is usually the input that supports UHD/Wide Color mode on most TV's too. I do a bit of tinkering with Photoshop and such and it's indeed very useful having such a large display that is very crisp when I sit about 5 feet away. You should still be able to do tweaks to the colors and such even when using PC and/or gaming mode. It's very odd if your TV doesn't allow you to do that. Try buying a Service Remote so that you can access the hidden Service Menu that would allow far more fine tuning compared to what's available with the consumer menus shipped with the TV.
.
Here, this is where you can find good settings that match their calibration targets and your TV also has very low input lag in PC mode with an awesome 20.8ms at 2160p 4:4:4 8-bit HDR PC mode.

What you were betting there, actually you lost it. 2 MSI 1080Ti Armor here.
Is this is a gaming only rig? If so, you wasted a huge amount of money on your GPUs and CPU for no real-world performance gains.

Well again, you don't even have a post count yet which means you have less than 10 posts. I'm glad I baited you guys into making an account, though. Welcome to the forums

This thread seems to have turned into quite the barking contest. Who could ever imagine that would happen?
Well, Ivan Pavlov for one. You dangle the video card in front of the gamer, and the gamer salivates. It's a slam dunk. Woof, woof, as it were.

Where's that playful spirit?
Imaginary numbers are an artifact of algebra. In Geometric Algebra imaginary numbers are real. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_algebraImaginary numbers work too

Yes, especially when big cost is associated with best video card.
As those who were not necessarily subject to Pavlovian conditioning know, big cost =/= best video card in many cases - even if the big cost is associated with a card designed for gaming.

Good joke, probably that would be on your broke country, but here on the states, quite a lot of people have two GTX 1080 Ti SLI

The Yoke is on me, then!
I just could not help myself, Pavlovian reaction and all, since I've been studying GA and whether numbers are imaginary or not depends on the mathematics that describes them.
As I see it, it is pretty interesting to read the comments of the person who "invented" imaginary numbers. Like other scientifically minded people, it sounds like he did not like the concept himself. https://www.cut-the-knot.org/arithmetic/algebra/JohnWallis.shtmlPshhhh... whats that? Check my IBM 5110, with 48Kb ram, 4 Character set keyboard, and 8 discrete 16 bit cores. What's bit mapped colored graphics when you have a 64 x 32 character 5 inch screen built in?All I know is, it might be time to yank the 8400 GT out of my G-31 dual core Pentium rig, and breath new life into it by slapping one of there puppies in there!
