Hey All,
 
I have the chance to get a GTX 980 SC (when they come back in stock) to move up from my 780 SC. The issue I am seeing is that there doesn't appear to be a huge leap in performance. I am wondering if it will be worth the $650 for the 980 SC. 
 
I haven't seen any reviews for the 980 SC with a 780 SC in the mix.... Any thoughts?
 
Thanks so much!!

    I'm making the leap :) Higher clock speeds should be a decent improvement.

    I moved from 2x Original Titans to 2x 980's and saw on average 15-25% speed increase with 1500mhz clock speed compared to 1100mhz on my ttans that was max i could get stable.
