For gaming? 770.

Personally I don't like buying video cards new at retail when they're late in their sales cycle.
The Maxwells are just around the corner, and they're going to be big upgrades over Kepler.

770 probably would be the bigger upgrade right now since you'd still likely be GPU bound with a new CPU, but I've been waiting on my 6950 for a while for Maxwell, I'll keep waiting until it's out or AMD releases something on a similar IPW level.

Consider an R9 280x at the sub-$300 price point. They are generally cheaper than the 770s, and perform at least on par in most games. You could also grab a second R9 270x for crossfire.

R9 280 for $190 after $20 MIR.

For those who have limited funds you can scoop up a used r9 series card for next to nothing on ebay
R9 270xs going for around $100 shipped
280xs I seen dipped to $150 shipped
290xs for $300 shipped. Keep in mind most of these cards were mined with but still helpful for those on a budget

8tb of storage for 239 seems pretty legit too

Black Friday is around the corner
I probably won't even use the laptop by then, honestly
The last time I used it I was putting the WC parts in my cube!

I'd say the pricing changes are pointing toward an eminent release of the 3d nand with TLC 850 standard/EVO in the near future.
The process is cheaper and allows for superior endurance and speed. Everyone is probably trying to clear 840 inventory as quickly as they can before the new hotness is on the market forcing prices of the old 840 series even further down.
