what gtx 1080 should I buy?

Dankdab · Feb 22, 2017

I wanted the asus strix gtx 1080 but it doesn't have 2 day prime shipping in canada. So i saw the zotac amp extreme but the backplate is ungodly ugly I absolutely hate it (why put rgb on a gpu if the backplate is a pre determined color??????) and then I saw the gigabyte gtx 1080.

I just want to know what has the fastest base - boost clock gtx 1080

I would go with the Gigabyte. Most of the clock are so similar it's not going to make a difference unless you're benchmarking.

Gigabyte cards looks great and fit in with color themes of most builds.

They overclock differently and the gigabyte 1080 is on par with if not is one of the best.

That one is fine.

which 1080 has the best temps? and minimalistic coil whine

Hamperking68 · Feb 22, 2017

Dankdab :

The Zotac AMP.

Other than that it would be the Gigabyte.

Hamperking68 :

it also seems to be the cheapest 1080 on the market

Hamperking68 · Feb 22, 2017

Dankdab :

Just because it's the cheapest doesn't make it the best. Most other have more features such as RGB which cost more to produce.

They all perform the same find the one you like the best and roll with it.

The one I really want is the asus strix ROG 1080 but it doesnt have prime shipping to canada and it says "usually" ships in 4-5 days. everything else in my build has 2 day shipping and them using the word "usually" EXTREMELY discourages me to buy it. the ZOTAC amp extreme 1080 seems so massive I am not even sure it will fit in my case and it might sag becasue it is so heavy.

When it says "usually ships in 3-5 days" does that mean it will get here in 3-5 days or it will ship out in 3-5 days.

I don't want to have everything else ready to build and not have the key part til 3 days after. I have waited too long for a pc like this.

It means it will ship within 'X' amount of days.

The usually is there just incase something goes wrong or you live a long distance from any post office or delivery location.

I might as well just get the gigabyte card. i heard it has plastic fans and that kinda worries me.

Hamperking68 · Feb 22, 2017

Most cards that have been made have plastic fans.

It makes no real difference.

Hamperking68 :

With the words you're using. I feel like an idiot

So what you said means that it will be at my house in x ammount of days right?

Hamperking68 · Feb 22, 2017

Dankdab :

Not trying to make you feel like an idiot or anything.

Yeah it will be at your house in a few days.
