Im with you but with a different concept. I am planning to wait to either get the reference or the non reference gtx 1080

What should I do? Wait for the non-reference cards or is the reference card good enough? The GTX 1080 is what I plan on buying. Should I buy on release date, or wait for MSI, Gigabyte, ASUS and other?

Here, I have a good build for u for the same performance but 1000 dollars http://pcpartpicker.com/p/89b8FT PCPartPicker part list: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/89b8FT Price breakdown by merchant: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/89b8FT/by_merchant/ CPU: Intel Core i5-6500 3.2GHz Quad-Core Processor ($204.99 @ Newegg) CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler ($27.89 @ OutletPC) Motherboard: MSI Z170A GAMING M5 ATX LGA1151 Motherboard ($159.99 @ Micro Center) Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-2666 Memory ($57.99 @ Newegg) Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($46.98 @ OutletPC) Video Card: MSI GeForce GTX 970 4GB Twin Frozr V Video Card ($304.99 @ Newegg) Case: NZXT S340 (Black/Red) ATX Mid Tower Case ($64.99 @ Micro Center) Power Supply: EVGA 500W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply ($33.98 @ Newegg) Case Fan: Cooler Master SickleFlow 69.7 CFM 120mm Fan ($5.95 @ OutletPC) Case Fan: Cooler Master SickleFlow 69.7 CFM 120mm Fan ($5.95 @ OutletPC) Monitor: Asus VX238H 23.0" Monitor ($109.99 @ Micro Center) Keyboard: Cooler Master CM Storm Devastator Gaming Bundle Wired Gaming Keyboard w/Optical Mouse ($24.99 @ Newegg) Total: $1033.68 Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available Generated by PCPartPicker 2016-05-07 19:29 EDT-0400 If U had more cash, get a 980ti

Some online sellers such as NewEgg offers free returns if Premire. I doubt that the GPU will be broken.

Also, it said that it is an INTERNATIONAL release.

Worth the wait. Get a 1-2 yr old gpu or get a new beast of a pascal. I think GPUS ship internationally.

Dude get the 1070! $370 and performance better than the TITAN X! All gpu's come with warranties.

My specs right now is a : Intel Core Duo 4GB of ddr2 800 MHz SDRAM 300 GB Hdd Nvidia Geforce 9400m 256Mb

What should I do? Buy the GTX 1080 when it releases(reference version)? or wait a while for the non reference cards such as MSI or G1 gaming?

Which GPU to get? At 1080p gaming? Don't comment on how its "overkill" I don't care about the price difference!

Will the IGPU work? On the specs it says Onboard Video Set: None?

Should I get an MSI z170a m3 or MSI z170a m5? I plan on using my Intel 6700k IGPU until my GTX 980ti arrives. M3:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130874 M5:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=13-130-873

I plan on using my IGPU until I get my GTX 980ti.

Will a MSI Gaming z170 M5 support my 6700k intel integrated graphics? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=13-130-873

I am not concerned about my power usage. I don't mind spending extra on electricity bills but people keep on urging me to not get a bronze ;/
