780Ti or 970

There are two builds of used systems I am looking at now. Both comes at about the same price, but they have some different specs. I am basically wondering which one will maybe last longest, preform good etc.. I play games like League of Legends etc, but I want to try streaming as well.

 

PC A
CASE: Fractal Design Define R4
CPU: Intel Core I7-4770k
CPU COOLER: Cooler Master Blizzard T2 CPU
GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 780Ti 3GB PhysX CUDA
PSU: Corsair CX 750, 750W PSU
MOTHERBOARD: MSI Z87-GD65 GAMING, Socket-1150
RAM: Crucial DDR3 BallistiX 1600Mhz 16GB KIT
HARDDISK: Seagate Barracuda 1TB
OS: Windows 7

PC B
CASE: CoolerMaster CMstorm Trooper Big Tower
CPU: Intel Core i5-4670K
CPU COOLER: Cooler Master Seidon 240m Water cooler
GPU: MSI GeForce GTX 970
PSU: XFX ProSeries 850W 
MOTHERBOARD: MSI Z97 Gaming 5
RAM: HyperX Fury 8GB
HARDDISK: Seagate Barracuda 1TB
SSD: 240 GB Kingston
OS: Windows 7

 

The B has a SSD included as well. The A system is about 1.5 years old, while B is about 0.5 years old,  that is basically why I am asking. System A had a change some months ago, where they changed the GPU from 770 to 780ti, as well as adding the cooler. The whole B build was built about half a year ago. Please give me some feedback. I want the PC to last for a while, and I am scared that the 780ti will get outdated.

I can get them for about the same price, 780ti a bit cheaper acctually! But, I am so insecure because the main parts (CPU, Motherboard, RAM) was ordered in September 2013, but the GPU was changed some months ago he said (idk when he bought it). Will this be a problem, since this pc is significantly older?

Um 780ti is basically within 5% of 980 if you overclock your gpus at all. So that is a no brainer.

If its the almost the same price.

Get PC A

and shame that pr*ck thats selling PC B

Nvidia is to Dr Dre Beets as AMD is to KFC.

One makes you broke, the other you can get more of and have a midnight snack from the fridge when hungry again. Once you go Nvidia, you go broked, turn into an Elitist, or get the incorrect amount of VRAM.

 I was only 9 years old. I loved Fifflaren so much, I had all the NiP merchandise and matches pirated. I prayed to Fifflaren every night before bed. Thanking him for the life I have been given. Fifflaren is love I say. Fifflaren is life. My dad hears and calls me a fuckhead. I knew he was just jelly of my passion for Fifflaren. I called him a Sw@yer. He hits me and sends me to go to sleep. I'm crying now, and my face hurts. I lay in bed and it's really cold. A warmth is moving towards me. I feel someone touching me. I feel someone touching me. It's Fifflaren. I am so happy. He whispers in my ear; "this is my pyjama". He grabs me with his powerful Swedish hands and puts me on my hands and knees. I'm ready. I spread my ass cheeks for Fifflaren. He penetrates my butt-hole. It hurts so much but I do it for Fifflaren. I can feel my butt tearing as my eyes start to water. I push against his force. I want to please Fifflaren. He roars a viking roar as he fills my butt with his love. My dad walks in. Fifflaren looks straight into his eyes and says; "He is a ninja now". Fifflaren is love, Fifflaren is life
