Two 780ti's or two 980's

Solution
Neither - 2x overclocked 970's would be my vote. Much cheaper and faster than 780Ti's and probably on par with the 980's for a fraction of the cost.

This guy knows what's up. I agree completely. two 980s vs tow 970s is like 10 frames difference, but way above 60 fps so you'll barely notice (or won't notice at all).

I would go for the 770's then. Your PSU can handle it as long as it's of good quality. Who makes your PSU?

Yeah you have a good PSU. You should easily be able to run those GPU's. Two 970's would be ideal. Sizzling is correct, two GPU's will cost more money in the electricity bill, but only when you run games. The second GPU shuts down when not in use.

By all means if you can find it for cheaper buy it cheaper! So it sounds like two 970's is what you're gonna go with! I hope everything runs smoothly. Good luck!
