Most consider/opt for dual GPUs only for gaming at 2560x1440 and above, where the GPU(s) will nearly always be the bottleneck. Rarely does a 6 core cpu even keep up with (much less, outperform/outframe) a higher clocked quad core.
The higher the res, the less impact a few more/less hundred MHz of cpu speed has on performance in gaming benchmarks...
At basic 1080P, however, both the cpu and gpu have significant impact.
(That being said, twin 970s would still rock, and the pair can be carried with you to any future mb/cpu upgrade in the future.
