So I recently started my first build and have everything bar a gpu. I'm looking at purchasing a 980 it but not sure which one would be best for my build. I should say that this will be used primarily for gaming on a 1440p monitor and budget isn't really an issue as I've done my saving. My build is as follows :

Case : NZXT h440
Mobo : MSI z170a gaming m7
Cpu : i7 6700k
Cpu cooler : corsair h105
Memory : corsair vengeance 2x8gb 3000mhz ddr4
PSU : EVGA supernova 750 g2

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
 
You can't really go wrong with EVGA, MSI, or Asus cards, just pick the cheapest one with the clocks closest to what you want (overclocking is easier if you get cards pre-binned to a higher clock). All three of those companies use 0dB idle fans, are very high quality, and have excellent warranties.

Thanks for your reply. Was looking at the Zotac amp extreme as the stock clock on it is the best I've seen, would you recommend that card or just stick to MSI, EVGA or Asus ?
 


It's not bad per-say, but do note that it's a three slot card rather than the standard 2 slot (won't be an issue on your motherboard though, even in SLI)
