How many of you who mainly game on a Pc can run all games on Ultra @ 1080P/60fps?

It's not midrange, though it's not high end either. It's the performance segment. Highend would be either 980 SLI or whatever becomes of big maxwell.

If you have the money upgrade to a 980 or depending when it's released maybe a 390X. Also depending on your PC gaming habits I would strongly recommend getting a bigger SSD. You should have your games running on the SSD and since it is usually also housing your OS you will run out of space very quickly. I currently use a 256GB SSD of which 128GB are reserved for games and I have to uninstall constantly.

I can see going for a better video card, but the bigger SSD is a hard pill to swallow. 1TB costs $400 at best, taking the build over $2k.  Well, I've got half a year before I start actually shopping this out for real, so things might change a bit by then.

Lol, You don't have to go full 1TB. 256GB is good if you minimize the capacity for the OS, 512GB is perfect. It's just that you really don't want your games to run from an HDD anymore. If I had to make a choice between between either and upgrade from 970 to 980 and 128GB SSD and 512GB I would most certainly pick the latter. A GPU can always be upgraded, adding space to existing storage is never as easy. If money is a concern I would keep away from the top performance cards anyway. As already mentioned a 970 is plenty powerful already.
If AMD hurries up a bit we might even already have a 390 in 6 months, which should cost around the same as a 970 but is more powerful.
