I am told there is a better one, but have no idea what it is. Right now I have a 970. But I am about to get a really good job and want to get a Titan X in a few months, and then a second one when I get my taxes back. Unless there is something better? I would love to game in 4k at 60FPS with G sync. Is this something that can be done with a single GPU or not?
Is the Titan X the best GPU o the market right now?

The Titan X is the best card on the market currently.
However, for gaming you're still better off with the 980 Ti performing only worse by like... what 1%? It usually performs as well as the Titan X but maybe a 1 or 2 frame difference at 300$ off of the price tag.

In a few months, actually, in a few weeks, THe AMD Radeon Fury flagship video cards will be out. They will be announced Monday, June 16 at the E3 gaming convention. The GPU for those cards is the largest GPU AMD has ever designed, and it will be using the new stacked HBM (High Bandwidth Memory) which sits right on the GPU package. Each stack of this HBM memory is 1GB, and each stack contributes a 1024 bit wide memory bus. There are 4 of them, so the card ends up with 4GB of memory, and a 4096 bit wide memory bus, which should produce a memory bandwidth of 512GB. At Computex in Taiwan last week, an AMD VP was showing off the GPU and said that it is the fastest GPU on the planet. In any case, the announcement is just days away now, and availability is rumored to be later this month. And here is the picture of that GPU package...

Titan X has highest core count and 12GB of RAM, double that of the 980Ti. However, a 980Ti is only about 5% slower at stock, and easily matches and exceeds (stock) Titan X performance with a mild overclock, all while costing ~$350 less. If you plan on getting the highest FPS you can in games and are ok with reducing IQ settings like AA/post processing/etc to cut down on VRAM and GPU load, you'll want to go for 980Ti's as you probably won't saturate the 6GB capacity with most games, even at 4K. If you simply plan on going for the absolute highest IQ settings (that are still playable), you'll probably want Titans as there are a few games out already that can reach and even breach 6GB of VRAM with high AA, highest texture settings, etc, when playing at UHD and Surround resolutions.
Seeing as how you mentioned wanting to game at 60FPS, you'll probably want to go with 980Ti's.

Second best. Currently it's significantly outperformed by the Sapphire R9 295X2, but is much cheaper and uses much less power. For all intents and purposes, yes, the Titan X is the best on the market. PERFORMANCE-wise.
The 980ti though I would say is significantly better overall. You're looking at a roughly 4% performance difference and a difference of 4-5 frames at most in 1440p or 4k gaming. Yes, the Titan X has much more VRAM, but no games out there even come close to using 6gb unless you're going full 4k and pushing every single setting to its maximum limit, and even then you'd probably just barely edge over 6gb. The 980ti currently sells for $660 on Amazon, so it's nearly half the price of the Titan X for less than 5% lower performance. The 980ti is definitely the smartest option overall, though the Titan X is physically more powerful, even if by a few percents. Even then the 980ti has outperformed the Titan X in certain benchmarks. At standard clocks, and a mild overclock puts it above and beyond a stock-clocked Titan X.
