Hey guys

Gtx 780Ti with non reference cooling is finally out on the market.I want to buy it but on the other hand I am thinking if (maybe)it is better to wait for this Black Edition of 780Ti??
I am not sure when or if it is coming out any time soon but what would be better option for gaming?

If I'm not mistaken, the Black Edition will just double the VRAM (to 6GB), and probably some mild overclocks.

Unless you're gaming on 3 1440p monitors, have a 4k monitor, or something ridiculous, you don't need to wait.

If you're playing on a single 1440p/1080p monitor, you'll be fine with just the 780 Ti.
Get the card now and start enjoying it, if a Black Edition comes out the difference in performance would not be that much. Mostly Black Editions are a marketing gimmick of something overclocked to get a higher price. Some will add a few new features but generally won't be used and waitng just makes you miss out on added performance now.
