I'm planning on building a gaming computer capable of rendering and playing on ultra settings.
would the gtx 780 ti be good enough or would it be smarter to get the gtx 980?

thanks!

it would be smarter to get the GTX 980 if you can afford it. It's faster and will last you longer, not to mention its greater power efficiency which will end up saving you $ on your power bill

The GTX 980 is the faster card.

Here's a basic comparison:

If your budget can afford it, I'd recommend the 980.

If you're looking for a truly future-proof card you might want to wait for the 980 Ti but that could be some time coming.

Ultimately, it's your decision.

GTX 980 is not the faster card. The 980 and 780Ti are about neck and neck with 780Ti round about 10% more powerful. That being said GTX 980 is much cheaper, far more efficient, based on the newest architecture, and reasonably close to GTX 780Ti performance.
Where the GTX 980 Shines is at 4K resolutions which it is helped along by its larger VRAM.
