970 should easily do the job.
I run 2 clients on 3 screens on a R9 390 (probably somewhere between the performance of a 970 and 980 depending on the resolution and how the games optimized) and run between 200-400 fps depending on what's going on.

Not sure what you're getting at about interleave, it has nothing to do with vsync,

I have the 960 and i run it on max everything with no lag at all, I can spout numbers if someone tells me how. CTRL+F in game or use 3rd party OSD software such as RivaTuner. You can get that with MSIAfterburner or PercisionX. Ok, after that with the GTX 960 FTW with max everything, I get: 275 FPS just warping around Brief dip to 80 FPS on system load after a jump 250 FPS on a gate with no players (Just NPC's) 110 FPS on the Jita undock (Changed depending on which direction you were looking at, lowest I got was looking back at the station for 100 FPS) I'm running 2 monitors with 2 docs open and Mozilla along with EvE, so the others shouldn't affect it much.
I assume youre running at 1920x1080as you didn't specify. That sounds about right for a 960 at 1080p, maybe a little suprisingly high for a 960 @ 2560x1440.

Added some further details to my last post, but as to whether or not there's a noticable difference between 60hz and 144hz I'd say probably not. 60 FPS is the generally accepted norm for butter smooth video. The resolution of 1440p over 1080p though I'd think would certainly be worth it. 1440p at 60 hz and you should be loving it.

The temptation to kick it up a notch and do it all at 120-140fps is a costly one... Willing to pay the price if those framerates can remain stable at max settings and if people who have experienced this can testify that it is worth the big bump in price... if not, 1440p at 60fps is nothing to complain about. Game already looks gorgeous on my TN 21in 1080p. Can't wait to see it in 1440p, 27in, IPS. The 144hz factor is the sticking point right now. The price difference is almost double to do 1440p, IPS, and 144hz all in one panel compared to just 1440p/IPS.
Both the 970 and the 390's are very reasonably priced as far as high end graphics cards go. The 980's and Fury are in a totally different league, costing almost as much as a crossfire/SLi setup of their junior cards. Personally having just recently upgraded to a new PC I went with the 390 due to it's improved performance at higher resolutions. An important point when running multi-screens and next spring when oculus rift is released. Just be sure if you go with AMD you have enough power supply as they are pretty hungry. Next summer I hope to pick up an Oculus Rift and upgrade to a second 390 to run in crossfire for FPS heaven at an affordable price.

That's just shy of 2 screens of 1080p, combine that with the fact that most games have reported looking MUCH better when using VSR which essentially doubles the workload. Besides, who's gonna play EvE with Oculus? What would be the point? The oculus is much more for games like Elite and Star citizen which will certainly need expensive cards (emphasis on plural) to run at consistant 60fps or higher while using VSR/DSR.

All at the same price. The three times I moved to Radeon, I regretted it. Sure they look great on paper, but it always ended with issue after issue concerning drivers. As far as your statement is concerned, yes again the rad looks better. But a large issue for me with that card is it's power usage. Plus I'd be back to guaranteed driver problems. While I'm no graphics card fan boy, (which you quite obviously are) I simply want an easy life. For the vast majority of the time I get that with NVidia. It's always been the other way for me with Radeon. Even if I get drawn to them every now and then.
Have used radeon cards since, well forever. Way before they were even owned by AMD and still using a R9 390 now and have never had a driver issue. Most problems I've ever seen with an AMD card are down to failure to follow directions (other than dell selling me an AMD crossfire setup on an invidia mobo that wasn't compatible back in 04'-05'.) Years ago you HAD to do a full wipe of the drivers off of your system before installing updated drivers or you risked problems. That said I haven't had to go through the trouble of doing that in a long time. Current installation software is much better than windows XP (and older) days.

All at the same price. It appears to be... literally... 2x the card with double the memory and bits. So I am a bit baffled as to why the 970 appears to outperform it according to this: http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html
Curious as to why this is and what is the "new technology". I would certainly consider a 390, but ruled it out based on similarly priced Nvidia cards outperforming them in tests I have read.
That does appear to be a pretty poorly performed set of marks. The fact that they simply lumped the 290 and 390 and the 290x and the 390x together as having the exact same performance is a pretty good indicator they didn't actually test all the cards in question but instead posted numbers based on what they believed to be the same chip sets. I can quite certainly assure you that an R9 Fury x out performs a GTX 970 which according that page it does not. Either poor testing or bias/faked results.

First self performed pc upgrades consisted of installing a chip on the mobo to increase video memory and adding a math co-processor to the cpu which allowed me to use the hi-fidelity flight model in falcon 3.0.
