Second 770, or 980?

Statik

So long story short, this probably isn't going to happen for quite a while, I'm just curious, and have a hardon for the lightup GeForce cards.

If or when i get another card, would i be best off getting a 2nd 2gb 770, or just going balls to the wall and getting a 980 or a 980 superclocked?

Would x2 970s out preform single 980?

This is more of a theoretical thing for like this time next year or later kind of deal, after i get my truck, and have very little expenses (hopefully, but who knows where ill be)

But saving money won't be an issue. Id be looking for the biggest, best card with the most preformance.
