[Kaiser499]

Interested in a 680 for my new build but I cant decide which one, some help or other recommendations?

The Msi lightning for sure it's one of the best 680's out there.

wait till they release then 700 series in 1-2 months wasting that much money now with a way better new gpu coming out in the next months isn't worth it
but if u want to buy now get the msi one other good ones are the asus cui version and the gigabyte oc versions

When the 780 comes out your not going to be able to get it right away anyways. Look at the history of top end GPU's they sell out the second they get released and I suspect that the same will happen to the 780 just like the 680.

Doesn't matter. The 680s are going down in price, the 780s will deliver 15-25% more performance. Wait 1-2 months..

Neither. 670 is $100 cheaper but only 5% slower.

Or wait few months if Nvidia releases 700 series.

Is this true? I thought the 700 series and 8000 series were both delayed until June or so.

They might be delayed until Q4 if the latest rumors are correct, June is still a possibility but not 1-2 months.

So is it worth waiting the whole year to get a 680 or should I just get one now?

If you feel like you need an upgrade I would get it now.

If you're buying now I would follow the recommendation from vesseblah and I. If you absolutely want a 680 then I'd pick the MSI from the two you linked.

i'd go for an asus 670/7970.

my advice ? go for the Evga 670 FTW it has a 680's fan and PCB plus a really good card i was this close to buying a 680
