I did a build for a friend last month and we used the Asus Direct CU II GTX 770 and it is awesome. Nearly silent and stays very cool. Plus it only costs 409.99 vs 449.99 for the MSI Lightning. I wouldn't get the lightning unless you plan on overclocking and tinkering a lot.

I have 2 wind forces. And I haven't even got to test em yet. If I did, I'd probably recommend those instead of what you have listed. Their stock over clock is the second fastest(1.14) while remaining at the same price as the dcu ii. Evga has one faster(1.15), but it's 500 something USD.
