980 TI SLI now or wait for Pascal?

Hi, I currently have 2 EVGA SC 780s (other system specs in sig) and a Dell UltraSharp U2713HM monitor (1440p).

At the moment my 780s are still eating their way through all new releases at near max settings (including GTA V and Witcher 3) and at 2560x1440. However, at some point I would like to upgrade my monitor to either a 4K/IPS/G-Sync or 1440p/IPS/144Hz/G-Sync panel and in both cases I'm going to need some extra GPU firepower to get the most out of either of these monitor types.

So, is it worth upgrading to 2 980 TI SLI now or is it worth waiting it out a bit and buying into Pascal (I think that's the next Nvidia line-up)?

Cheers :)
 
Are there any sensible projections on just how potent Pascal is going to be? If the reduction to 16nm along with all the other stuff really is a game-changer then I think I might be better off waiting. Hmmmm, choices choices...
