So I've nearly finished picking my first build's parts, but I'm sort of stuck on the GPU...
I know I'm getting a gtx 780, but not quite sure which brand to go with yet...
The superclocked EVGA looks nice, but so does the inno3d, asus and MSI cards...
Or I might get the refrence card, I'm totally clueless
which would you say is the best?

I think MSI Lightning isn't released yet.

EVGA, Asus, MSI, Gigabyte. These are the 4 most popular brands IMHO. They all have solid reputation and very good cooling solutions. Hard to say which one is really better. I don't know much about inno3D though, I took a look at their cards and they look great too.

sorry to burst your bubble but the Plait Super Jetstream GeForce GTX 780 OC would be my choice any day of the week as it's cheaper too by £70 you buy a new HDD for that money

That's what I thought too, as I couldn't find any ANYWHERE... But the people above me claim that the classified gtx 780 is the best 780 out of the box...

Since MSI has a bad(?) habit of creating the best cards with the Lightning series, my advise is to wait and see what MSI will offfer soon.

I'm thinking that if you are a "normal" gamer any above average GTX 780 is going to be great to have in your rig. You probably don't need a $700 EVGA Classified. So you should be looking more at the MSI Gaming edition, which is a great card for a little less.

Still though, that HOF shroud is actually made of aluminum and metal alloys. I bet it looks so cool up close.

I would go for the ultra quality components of the 2-Slot Asus GTX780. Long life and high long-term value; but the HoF is one incredible looking card BUT it uses 2.5 slots; even though the photos prevent you from spotting that. Thus it is harder to SLi and reduces its long-term value.
e.g.

Unless the R9 290X.............. end of the month.
