Currently I have no video card. I am looking at buying the MSI gtx 970 "gaming". It seems to be the best of the 970 lot, although I'm unsure of MSI's customer service as I haven't bought from them.
Should I get it or wait for NVidia Pascal? Anyone know when Pascal will be ready, other than just 2016? I'm betting even if it were released in Feb, I would need to wait several months for price reduction anyway.
Is this MSI card a good choice?
If so, which edition, 4G or ME?

Most games 780 Ti is faster or equal, but there are games like this:Pretty sure I'll get the gigabyte 970, cause I don't care about the 0 fan speed at idle. The 780ti classified is quite nice looking but it seems support for it is declining? Seems it should be higher performance than 970 but drivers are not reflecting it?

rumor is ~april for pascal, as for amd's chip has been no news which usually means it probably q3 range. Nvidia is pretty close with it.The short answer is that Pascal and Arctic Islands aren't early half of 2016. Waiting for them to not only release, but hit MSRP or lower will likely be either late 2016 or early 2017.

Thanks everyone. Decided to get either
new gigabyte g1 gaming 970
new msi 970 "100 ME"
or EVGA gtx 780 ti classified (a bit cheaper, maybe $80 less)
Pretty sure I'll get the gigabyte 970, cause I don't care about the 0 fan speed at idle. The 780ti classified is quite nice looking but it seems support for it is declining? Seems it should be higher performance than 970 but drivers are not reflecting it?
