hey guys hope everyone is well, huhu

deciding between the msi lightning, asus direct cu II, and evga classified versions

now keep these things in mind:

1) i chose these cards because they seem to have the most oc potential (read good things about the HoF, but the price doesn't seem to justify the performance when compared with these)

2) the lighting is 539 (mir), classified is 549, and the asus is 519 (iirc)

3) i don't necessary care as much about the oc coming out of the box, because I want to oc them myself...so given that which one would be the best buy

4) i wouldn't be adverse to saving a few bucks (say going with the asus over the classified) if there is a strong consensus that the asus can be oc'd as well as the classified

please let me know what you guys think, thanks!

Think it would be between the Asus and the EVGA - those are what I always look at first with nVidia GPUs, I love the Asus CU design and have always had good look with their GPU and OCing them (both the nVidia and the AMD cards)...with the price differential think I'd go the Asus, can put the difference into another upgrade
