Which 680?

Not sure if this has been asked here but I am looking to buy a new GTX 680 and was wondering if anyone could recommend one.
I was thinking of going with an EVGA one or the Palit Jetstream model.

I have decided against forking out an extra €100 for 4GB video RAM as I am only going to be gaming on a single monitor @ 1920*1080.

I have been looking through the EVGA models and there are loads to choose from. Some with slightly higher clocks and price.

Firstly, can anyone recommend a card and secondly, if I go EVGA, is it worth spending the extra for a model with higher clocks. i.e. FTW model over a reference card.

Thanks for your help.
 
Thanks for the replies. Was having a look around and think I like the look of the
EVGA GTX 680 SC Signature 2. Has factory overclock, is on of the cheapest
EVGA 680's and comes with a dual fan cooler.

A buddy of mine always buys EVGA and advised me to do the same based one the warranty alone.

Anybody got a signature 2?
 
Am thinking either the MSI Lightning or the EVGA Signature 2.
Gonna order soon so might just make a last minute decision.

Is the lightning meant to be reliable? What is the warranty like on it?

Might go for it. Was adamant I was gonna get EVGA this time but am tempted by the MSI.
 
Decided to go for the MSI Lightning! Read some great reviews on it so decided to spend the cash!
Hopefully shipping won't be too long as I sold my old 6970 already.
Thanks for all the help.
Much appreciated.
