The Wait War

Greetings!

 

 

So as many people, I am waiting for the ever so popular GTX 780 LIGHTNING.

 

So until it comes, i was thinking of getting a GTX 770, question is, which one? The 770 Lightning is a true beast all itself, but is there anything that competes with it? And

would it be so worth it to wait for the card?

God no. Why the hell would you pay good money for 770 and lose some of it in a month, or even less? AFAIK 780 lightning comes out in the first week of August.

8/7/2013 according to Tom's Hardware...might as well wait it out and see if all the rumors are correct about the card being voltage unlocked with redudancies etc etc. If you're ballin' then get any 770 (I'm preferential to EVGA and ASUS) and when the 780 Lightning arrives, donate the 770 to me. :)
