So I have the choice of those 3 GPUs.

I won't be going AMD so please don't recommend them.

I understand that the 780 Lightning is the fastest 780 available. After reading reviews, once OC'd, it beats a 780 Ti.

Value for money and OC ability, would going for the 780 Ti SC be the best option?

Both the 780 Lightning and the 780 Ti are available here but the 780 Ti SC will need to be shipped from Amazon.com which takes 2 - 7 business days.

Thoughts?

If you overclock them both to their max the 780 ti will still be better. (At least it should be :p) So the extra cash for better fps is your choice :D
 
Tell us the prices!

Even if it's insignificant to your decision... I wanna feel sorry for myself by reflecting on how poor I am :p
 
The Gigabyte 780TI is the one to go for no doubt.
Price and performance is good. I wouldn't import a card, you end up waiting weeks for it just to get a DOA card, then your forced to ship it back at your cost and wait more. So skip the Evga.

Performance wise although its true the 780 lightning can match a 780ti, a clocked 780ti will pretty much destroy anything except for a heavily clocked R9 290X.

Buy the best you can afford.

I work for Amazon though.

Hence ordering the 780 Ti SC

Oh nice, didn't know that.

Tech speaking the sc is just a clocked 780ti, nothing special about it. It depends how quick you want the card, even with priority shipping, customs loves taking their sweet time. So I would still grab the Gigabyte 780ti.
 
Yeah I was planning on OCing the 780 Ti SC anyway for higher clocks and increased performance.

If it really isn't worth it, I'll get the Gigabyte Ti
