it's just the way the engine renders the game. GTA is a massive game and to make things load seamlessly, they lazy load and use low textures on objects far away to achieve the game runs smoothly as it does.
I don't think its the quality or the loudness that makes beats so popular, but that they are cool, trendy and fashionable now. You see all the pro athletes with them and you want them too! It's the naming and branding that does it, they are no different then Nike Air Jordans
next gen consoles GPU is about around a Radeon 7850. a 670 GTX will blow it away you will be fine. People say Max settings, when max settings is 2560x1600 resolution with every single 8xAA algorithm running. At this resolution and resolutions beyond AA isn't as efficient and increases in computation power at higher resolutions. Which is why the titan can't max everything. It's not something i would worry about
according to hardocp. sandy vs ivy vs hasswell @ 4.5 Ghz have the nearly same performance on a single titan on synthetic benchmarks http://www.hardocp.com/article/2013/06/01/intel_haswell_i74770k_ipc_overclocking_review/3#.UeB25T5rOCg I can not find a benchmark with SLI titans vs different CPU's. But i suspect it wouldn't be much different.
In gaming benchmarks the 6 core sandy bridge - e dosen't gain much http://www.hardocp.com/article/2013/06/01/intel_haswell_i74770k_ipc_overclocking_review/5. Sure the 6 core processors might help for next gen games, but i honestly doubt it when most next gen games are being offered on current gen platforms as well. That will probably change but I can't see the future. Do whatever you want to do.
Honestly stick with your 2500K if a i7 isn't going to gain anything, and for sure will not bottleneck even 3way 780's. If your worried just buy a $30 dallor cooler and overclock it to 4 Ghz
my only concern with the 765m is how well it will play next gen games. the blade pro is nice 1920x1080 but that graphics card is really only capable of playing on 1600x900 with high settings. Anyways time will tell
