I would probably be driven more towards the 980 but been comparing the 780ti and the 980 and there really isnt that much in it if you take into the cost per performance its not worth the extra £130 stuck between do i get 970 or 980 as the 80 in my opinion would need that bit more if i was to pay 400 vs the 280 for the 970
 
GTX 970 is great for $330-349
