I already have my eyes set on the MSI Lightning 770 which I am getting since I sold my GTX 670.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So before I get the MSI 770 and OC it to the 780 performance, should I just go with 760 SLi over a single 770? Or is it alot better just to add another 770 in a
few months?

Hmmm... Thankyou :)

EXTRA:Ok, and I was going to get a 780 but why not OC a 770 to its performance? lol
 


Becaus a GTX770 can not OC to anywhere near a GTX780. GK104 vs GK110.
 

I think you got that backward. A $500 GTX 760 SLI setup (only $50 more than a GTX 770 Lightning) is going to regularly beat a $1000 Titan and trounce a $650 GTX 780.

Checking out these reviews, the GTX 760's in SLI are consistently at or above the level of a Titan.

What we haven't mentioned yet is SLI performance and for good reason because here is where we feel the GTX 760 offers the best value against performance. It is the TITAN's equal, betters a GTX 780 yet cost much less than both so if you only intend on gaming at 1920x1080, we so no reason why you would opt for single ultra high end card when the GTX 760 SLI setup is the better option and here is where it offers very good value for money.

The GTX 780 is at a whole different level of performance than a GTX 770. You cannot overclock a GTX 770, even the MSI Lightning, to match a GTX 780 at stock.
