Core i5-3570K (running @ 4.2 Ghz - slight auto voltage OC).
Asus Sabertooth Z77 Motherboard
Asus 670 GTX DC2T
16 GB of G.Skill ripjaw-X DDR3 1600Mhz
SSD 256GB Crucial M4.
HD Western Digital Black 2TB
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D14
Case: Corsair CC600T Graphite White Special Edition
Running Win 8.1 64bit. Pro
Monitor: Asus ROG SWIFT PG278Q 2560 x 1440p
I was planning on skipping the GTX 980 and wait for a 980ti or 990 (however it will be called). But I have been thinking it over, and I think GTX 980 is a great pick right now. What do you think?
Anyway, trying to choose between the two brands: Asus or EVGA ? In terms of stability, cooling (most important probably), performance, size and design etc.... Which GTX 980 should I get?
I currently only have Gigbyte, MSI and ASUS in Israel where I live, but it is possible that an EVGA model will arrive soon.
My 670 is an Asus DC2T.
Finally - should I get some kind of an OC / superclocked version?
Please tell me brands and exact model names that you can recommend. Thanks!
