Buy today or wait?

Sorry for the double post. I posted this in Video Cards originally but I thought that General Hardware might be a better fit:

So my roommate likes to do 3D gaming on his 1920x1080 DLP TV but hasn't done much recently due to his GTX 275 being a bit underpowered.

He has an i7 920 OC'd to 3.6 so no bottleneck there and has been looking for a new card for awhile.

He plays BF3 (currently at low) and many other tough to run titles. No MMO's though.

I saw the 560GTX ti 448 core deal posted on the deals thread and wondered if it is worth him buying the twin frozr for $250 or if it is worth waiting on Keplar?

Will the 1280 MB of VRAM be enough or does 3D gaming require more VRAM?

He has an SLI capable board, is it worth it with this card?

The deal ends today so a quick answer would be much appreciated.

Thanks for any help
 
Not sur ehow much of an upgrade that would be, in bang for buck. Id suggest waiting. If team green can see the same sort of performance gains that team red had with 28nm, it would be worth the wait IMO.
 
Your other thread in the Nvidia GPU forum was fine. Locking this thread.
 
Thank you for the information. He decided to wait for now and perhaps buy a 670 or 680 on release.
