Can someone please clarify what I am missing here? I am looking at two Gigabyte R9 380 GPU's, and aside from the look, they seem to be identical. One of them is $40 more expensive, and I can't figure out why.

One of them has the G1 Gaming notation, where the other is just a Windforce, but their specs seem to be the same. Are there any other differences aside from the look of the backplate? It looks like one is on sale right now, but even without the sale there is still a $10 difference.
