There are so many and i need a hand choosing between them... At first i was going for the Evga with the atx because it looks so great in a case... but then Asus put out theirs and it supposedly out performs all other non reference... Then there is the Evga classified... I don't know what to pick anymore >.<

Any help with the subject would be extremely helpful. Assume budget isn't an option i don't mind saving longer.

The three best out there would be Asus DCUII, EVGA Classified and MSI Lightning

Wait for non reference 780Ti. When they come out, go for the EVGA ACX SC. It is black, and awesome. It will beast everything.
