1.Should I upgrade my GTX 770 4GB or wait if all I want is gaming at 1080p/60fps? 2. Is the 770 considered a high-end or mid-tier card (it doesn't really matter but I'm kind of curious)?

Personally I believe that 4GB GDDR 5 VRAM is more than enough for 1080p60 if you can up the engine clock a little and the 770 was probably mid-high but is now mid due to age and newer series.

1: it's probably okay for 1080p60 for at least another generation, especially with 4gb of vram

2: mid tier, a little bit better than the equivalent 960.
