How much longer will the GTX 780 last against the GTX 770 and is the extra time worth the extra £200 you have to pay?

Playing single monitor 1080p with games such as Crysis 3, Skyrim and next gen games like Battlefield 4 etc.

The GTX780 will always be more capable than a GTX770.
But, I think you are asking about how long a GTX780 will perform well as new games come out.

My guess, and it can only be a guess, is that a GTX780 will game very well so long as you are using a single monitor at 2560 x 1600 or less. If you contemplate triple monitor gaming or a 4k monitor, then all bets are off. I do not think game developers want to produce games that require such high end graphics that it limits their market.

Get a GTX 770 now and add another one late in SLI when you can pay. easier than adding another GTX 780 when you are on low budget ..

if your Motherboard does not support SLI , then get GTX 780

If you are rich and can get 2 780 GTX in SLI the better :)
