Upgrade bug has hit me and I would really like to get away from the tri-fire solution. Any recommendations for an equally powerful/more powerful single (preferred) or dual card solution? I dont have an unlimited budget but I have enough to consider getting a Geforce Titan when it releases....but I have my cards watercooled and would like to continue to do that with the new setup...not sure how likely we are to see titan waterblocks.
 
Tri fire, huh? What cards you running? I can't see a sig on my iPhone. If it was myself, I'd wait for Titan to see if it does anything to the prices of current tech. At this point, we don't really KNOW much of anything, so it might be possible that we'd see a price drop. I know the old saying about waiting for computer parts - if you wait, you'll just keep waiting as there's always something better/cheaper/faster coming down the pipe. But since we know that Titan is coming soon, perhaps when it hits you'll have a few more things that can help you make a decision.

If I had the money and system to handle a dual-card, I'd probably go Geforce GTX 670's - probably 4GB because of a modded Skyrim.
 
3 6970s aren't enough? I would also have said 670 4GB SLI, but I'm wondering if that won't be too close to a sidegrade for how much money you're putting down. Probably cooler and quieter, at least.

I would say wait until the next cards hit, or at least until we have more info about the Titan. Either way, prices will go down.
