What is your full budget? I would get a 1070 instead of a 980

GTX 980 makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Get a GTX 1070 instead, since the GTX 1070 is cheaper and significantly better. GTX 970 makes more sense than a GTX 980 but GTX 970 doesn't even make sense at this point, with the RX 480 beating it for $199, and the GTX 1070 smashing it for like $50-$100 extra.
