Hey guys!
So I've ordered the parts for a new PC that I'll use for rendering and gaming and at that time my best option was the Gigabyte FE and I went for it. Now, the G1 Gaming is available to me as well, for $20 more. The MSI Gaming X is not available in my country yet.
My question is, should I change my order and get the G1 Gaming instead? I am a little concerned about the hot air being blown directly through the case and heating the other parts.
My other specs are:
Case: Dark Base Pro 900 with 5 fans (2 front, 1 rear, 1 top, 1 bottom);
Mobo: ASRock X99 Extreme6/3.1;
CPU: i7 5820k with a CPU Noctua NH-D15 cooler;
PSU: Corsair Professional Series Platinum AX860;
Monitor: a 4k ultrawide;

Thanks;

get the G1 gaming, apparently is has the best temperatures of current pascal cards.
plus you have plenty of air circulation in your case, so you shouldn't worry about it.

I would go with the G1 gaming card. It will run cooler, quieter, and at a higher clock speed. The heat being exhausted into the case will be a non issue since especially since you have good air flow to exhaust the heat.

Are seriously asking? Go for it!! Temps difference between those two is 15c . Gigabyte has 70 at max load and FE has 85-90. You good airflow .and since you don't have problem with the FE you won't have any problems with the g1 gaming. As long as you cam go for it !!!
