So in my current rig I have a gtx 780 and I keep eyeballing the new gtx 980. At the same time I have been thinking about just getting a second 780. So what do you guys think, should I sell my 780 and jump to the 980 or should I just keep my 780 and maybe sli? If you think I should sell it, what would be a fair price for my card? Any direction on this would be greatly appreciated.

 

My 780:

there is no point spending a ton of money for a 780 and then a year later for a 980 for like 20% more performance. if at 1080p stick with the 780 and if at 1440p then buy a second one
