In my personal opinion I think the GTX 690 is one of the most non-talked about Cards that's around. I looked at HW Compare and noticed that the 690 is substantially faster with Memory Bandwidth, Texel Rate, and Pixel Rate, when compared to the Titan. The only upside for the Titan is that is has 50W less consumption than the 690. Both cards are also the same price.
Here's the link to the comparison: http://www.hwcompare.com/13959/geforce-gtx-titan-vs-geforce-gtx-690/

What do you guys think?
I know there is more to it than that so I'd love to see everyone's opinions :)

2K is also known as 2560x1440p just as a fun fact =P

EDIT: or WQHD as fun fact #1.5

Sorry I was wrong. Both GPUs exhibit very powerful performance, so it probably isn't worth upgrading from one to the other, as both are capable of running even the most demanding games at the highest settings.

Do I really even need to upgrade my card? I like to play in HD but I don't have one of the 2k monitors or anything. I seem to get 60+ FPS in games such as ARMA 3, BF4, and DayZ Standalone. I always love to have the best performance I'm just unsure if it's even worth doing.

No, you don not. A 770 will play 1080p very welll and should be good for some time. You can always sli later on down the road.
