ICS ROM or Official update? - LG Optimus Black

I don't know if I should root my phone and flash an ICS Rom or should I wait for LG to release the official update?
Is it worth the wait? Or can I do both?
P.s. I'm a noob.

I don't feel like rooting my phone. Is there any other way to solve this problem?? i seriously need help
If your not rooted and you ran update via Kies then i would load an old back up recovery from Kies and re install.
