Solution
You will win fps benchmarks with GTX780ti SLI, but will have some gameplay issues.
Some games do not support dual cards well or even at all.
You will avoid stuttering and tearing issues.
At the same price, I would pick the GTX980ti hands down. It will handle a 4k monitor decently.

My suggestion is to buy your 1440P monitor and see how you do.

OTOH, 2 used GTX780ti cards sold on ebay will get you most of the way to a new GTX980ti.

Go with the 980 ti because the 980 ti will give you similar performance to 2x 780t' s with an OC Plus the benefits of a single card solution.

" You will also need more VRAM for many Current and upcoming titles if you like to play with ultra textures"
