I live in Korea and I'm planning on building my first PC for 4K and VR gaming.

After hours of research I have discovered that the GTX1080 has the best reviews. However, I cannot get the official NVIDIA GTX1080 unless I purchase it from Amazon and get stung by delivery fees. Can you recommend any other brands that would still provide me with top level PC gaming?

Many Korean websites are recommending the GTX1080 iGame X-TOP from "Colorful".

Please help me! I am seriously overwhelmed by all the video cards out there with a GTX1080 chipset. It's doing my nut in.

Thank you!

From what I can tell Colorful is legit, tom's hardware even has articles about them

I can't find any reviews for that particular card (in english) but heres a benchmarking video:

So it seems to be fine to me, though I don't know much about Korean brands
If there are good reviews in Korean that you've seen then I don't see any reason not to get it
