Otherwise, I don't see many willing to upgrade from their 770/780 to the 970/980.

The main target group will probably not be the ones which already have a 770/780/780ti/Titan but people with a 570/580/660/670/680/760 willing to upgrade.

Like me... my 580 is now over 3 years old (the longest time ever a graphic card was in my PCs) and was enough so far for most games. But I want to play Dead Rising 3 and GTA V without too much compromises.

That's true, but it's also true that the users of high end cards are also those that are more likely to upgrade every gen. Hell, many made the jump from a GTX 680 to a 780.

That's why I see this gen of cards (which are nothing more than a stop-gap until 22nm is ready) performing very well in sales unless they offer some tangible benefits in the fields of power savings, temp. and/or price.
