A second 660 Ti, or 780?

Hi folks, still quite new, I was on here a while back looking for very similar advice to the above question - previously, I was pondering either dual 660 Ti's, or a single 770. I decided to stick to 660 Ti SLI, upgrade time isn't here yet, but with the recent price drop of the 780 (non Ti) I'm torn again! What I've found so far seems to show fairly similar results between the two, and if I were to sell my current 660 Ti towards it I'll not be spending much more than if I bought another Ti to get a 780. Plus, with my current setup I have a 1080p Asus LED monitor that runs 60hz, and having come from an ageing Xbox 360 to this I'm in love, and in no rush to upgrade, be that to higher Hz or resolution.

So tl;dr - 660 Ti in dual SLI, or single 780 (probably MSI Twin Frozr), bearing in mind not looking for over 60 fps at 1080p for the foreseeable future? Specs below:

CPU - i5-3570K with stock cooler
GPU - Asus GTX 660 Ti DirectCU II
RAM - 8 GB Corsair Vengeance
Mobo - MSI Z77A-G45 Gaming Edition
2 TB HDD
Asus 24" LED 1080p monitor, 60Hz
