Looking to upgrade graphics card

NakedChicken

I'm looking to move into 1440p gaming. I currently have a 2gb reference Gtx 680. I've been looking at prices and I'd like some input on what to buy. I am considering adding a water loops at a later date too. 

Gtx 780 Poseidon it $329 right now, considering this because it already has a water block and an air cooler.

Msi 780 ti Gaming is $419!

Msi R9 290 is $265! 

The last option is going with a Gtx 970.

What do you guys think?

Sli/ crossfire is an option, but they would need to be cooler cards due my case being an mATX enclosure.

Any input is appreciated, Thanks!

780>970>780TI

970, or R9 290 if you're gonna water cool them or wait for AMD to release the R9 3xx series.
