Hi Guys! I was wondering if it is the right time to get a new gpu. I have an ancient MSI GTS 250 1GB right now, and it has HW support for DX10 only. I don't know if DX12 cards will be out anytime soon. I'd definitely wait for those if those were available within a few months. However, there's an offer on a Galaxy GTX770 2GB GC card here in an online store, which I can grab for about ~$400. The MSI Twin Frozr is ~$457 and the Asus DCII about ~$455 - $600. Would it be a good idea to grab the Galaxy now, or may be just get a damn 750Ti, since none of these is gonna be supporting DX12? Or just keep waiting for higher end Maxwell or even Pascal? BTW, don't get freaked out about the prices - I'm in India. I am not sure about the quality/reliability of the Galaxy's components. Have any of you used this or any other card from Galaxy? Please share your thoughts.

Target is 1080p only
