Im debating between a 770 4gb, 780 3gb, 970 3gb, or a 760 and a good keyboard/mouse. What do you think i should get? The 970 isnt available yet, so should i jump for it now or later?

770 4GB is a waste of money. You can get a GTX 970 4GB for the same price.

1. There is no 3gb GTX 970, they are all 4GB

2. The GTX 970 is the clear winner unless you can get the 780 for a lot cheaper

3. Keyboard/mouse is personal. For the keyboard mechanical or not? LED backlighting? Budget? For the mouse what type of grip?

RIG: I7-4790k @ 4.5GHz | MSI Z97S SLI Plus | 12GB Geil Dragon RAM 1333MHz | Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX 970 (1550MHz core/7800MHz memory) @ +18mV(Maxed out at 1650/7800 so far) | Corsair RM750 | Samsung 840 EVO 120GB, 1TB Seagate Barracuda | Fractal Design Arc Midi R2 (Closed) | Sound Blaster Z                                                                                                                        Getting: Noctua NH-D15 | Possible 250GB Samsung 850 Evo                                                                                        Need a console killer that actually shits on every console? Here you go (No MIR/Promo)

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 | http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861

Yeah i mistyped the 3gb 970. I was looking at getting a razer mouse, keyboard would come a little later. But to afford a new mouse, i would have to settle for a 760. Would it still be worth it i wonder?

Do you have a mouse currently. If so then get the best card you can now and then upgrade your peripherals when you can down the road.
