Unless there's a significant price difference that would make the 780tis better value go with two 970s.

I think the 780 ti's are slightly faster, but I think they go for 500-600 a pop while 970s are 350-360 for strixs

One day I will have my GTX 970. One day. PC specs are at my profile.

Not sure how to check what part works with what? Check out my compatibility guide!

780 Ti gets more performance and 360 USD is a good price for them.

The 970 just runs cooler and uses less power.

970's OC very well and are significantly cheaper.

The 780Ti is comprtitive with the 980 though.

I know, just saying that the 970 being the preferred option is justified.

The bench marks listed on that website are mostly on medium settings. The 970 would definitely out perform the 780ti at games on higher settings.
