It depends......
What is your CPU?
What PSU you have? and how many wats?
What monitor you have and at what resolution do you play?
What you use your PC for?
But even if you play at 1440p I think a single 780ti will be enough.

THIS, although think about depending on the res he's playing if 1080 and lower there should be no reason to get another card in the 1st place.

I don't know if he has a card right now or even a PC for that matter. He's spread his new build out between 2 threads. The other one is here
