Hi,

Perfect match for you is ASUS GTX780-DC2OC-3GD5 - GeForce GTX 780 3 Go :

GTX TITAN is useless and others NVidia GPUs will be outdated quickly due too their lack of memory.
Crossfire/SLI is useless in my opinion since few software are able to use it.

I prefer personnally ATI because if found texture more beautiful but same NVidia GPUs has usually higher framerate.

The same GPU from ATI actually equal to the "ASUS GTX780-DC2OC-3GD5" is the "ASUS Radeon R9 290X R9290X-G-4GD5", very worthful in my opinion.

But as you can see, it costs more than 500 EUR (530) so it would be maybe clever to wait one month, for example, to see it price lower.

3d accelerators exist since voodoo1? :3
PS: ur budget is overkill imo, for that money I build you a whole pc Lol

any built-in GC is more than enough for this, hd4600 plays 4K videos very easy. i see nosense in buying GC more expensive than $300 even for fHD games, and choosing GC depends on ur CPU ofc. or if i understood wrong and u want not to watch 3d movies but make them then my opinion is just like blablabla and i don't think it needs gaming GCs

I doubt u need that expensive gfx for video playback, this expensive gfx is ment to be used in 3d gaming, but not in 3d or 2d high res movies, actually even if the gfx has hardware suport for video playback even then cpu is more important than a gfx, for example in high res movies my old cpu 2x3ghz is not enough to play resampled move in 120fps

I am addicted to life.

3D Movies as in 3D Modelling/Animation? Go for NVidia! I am a 3D artist myself and I can tell you that you'd better work with NVidia, their CUDA cores provide so much possibilities! Including one of my favorites, real-time rendering. AMD has real-time rendering as well but you'd need a special plugin for that and it's not as fast as NVidia's.
Which card from NVidia? SLI would not be bad choice, but if you're heading towards SLI then I'd suggest you buy a Dual Card instead instead from NVidia. If you really want to just dedicated to 3D Modelling, then buy a Quadro card (good for modelling, poor for gaming).
