The only advantage a single 980Ti has over 970 SLI is in minimum frame rates due to the 980Ti having 6GB VRAM.
and ofc the advantage when games doesnt proper support sli, are poorly optimized, or very late driver update

I'm currently using a GTX Asus 970 turbo trying to figure out if it would be better to just spend the $300 for another one and SLI them, or to save the money for a 980TI? What would be better when it comes to price to performance?
if you already have 1 gtx 970, wait it out and see what happens in the upcoming months with Pascal/Polaris,
at best: they will be worth the wait/upgrade
at worst, they wont be worth the wait/upgrade, and you should be able to get a cheaper 900 series, weather another 970 or 980ti,
just pay attention to the data once some official data are released(all we have atm are hype and rumour data)
