New GTX 980 and 970 GPUs are now available from NVIDIA, and you can find an introduction to the new hardware on the GeForce website and there are evaluations from a bunch of sites in today's hardware review section. To support the new cards, the GeForce website now offers new WHQL-certified version 344.11 drivers, which also add support for some new and upcoming games. Here's word: "The new GeForce 344.11 WHQL drivers are now available to download automatically through GeForce Experience, and from GeForce.com. These new drivers give GeForce GTX owners the ultimate gaming experience in the latest blockbuster titles, including Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, The Evil Within, F1 2014 and Alien: Isolation, and add support for the brand new, Maxwell-powered GeForce GTX 980 and GeForce GTX 970, the world's most advanced graphics cards."

So hard to decide if I should upgrade from a 770 to a 970. The performance increase is okay, but the TDP sweetens the deal. 230W->145W

If I were you, I'd wait until probably next year for the 20nm refresh. Hell, I've waited all this time with a 580, and it's definitely time, but a 770? You'll hardly notice.

correct me if i'm wrong, but the 580 and 770 are almost identical. the 580 was the landmark card, and then the 680 made very small marginal improvements, but largely kept everything the same. and then the 770 is literally a re-brand of the 680.
