Just wait for the new GPUs to see if the performance is worth it to you. Even if it isn't, you may very well get a discount on the 980 Ti or similar.

Wait for the upcoming GPUs. Hopefully the new prices won't be too over the top, and if you don't find the other GPUs to be worth it, at the very least the 980 Ti should be decreased in price.

You can wait for a few months then. I'm thinking the reviews for the upcoming cards will be up by the end of July at the latest.

 

Also the new AMD cards should be out before the nvidia ones.
