So after months of trying to get my new card replaced the seller finally did the proper tests and sent me a refund on my card which was plagued with ridiculous coil whine. Now I need a new card and am after suggestions. My old (coil whiney) card was a Gigabyte G1 1080 and I was told after buying it that they are known to have a lot of coil whine in the G1 series. Now I was wondering if you guys know of any makes and cards that are known to usually ship without coil whine and are genuinely reliable ( I know it is completely luck of the draw but i know there is some info out there saying some makes are more prone to CW than others). My budget is £500 and would like either a 1080 or 1070 (if decent). Thanks guys!

Well, the best rated GTX 1080 is the ASUS ROG Strix GTX 1080 https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-GeForce-STRIX-Graphics-STRIX-GTX1080-A8G-GAMING/dp/B01K5F8MJK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1506586102&sr=8-1&keywords=asus+rog+strix+gtx+1080
As for 1070 it would appear to be the same thing, the ASUS ROG Strix GTX 1070 https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-GeForce-STRIX-Graphic-STRIX-GTX1070-O8G-GAMING/dp/B01HDUVJ1I/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1506586193&sr=1-1&keywords=asus+rog+strix+gtx+1070

To me it appears the better deal is the 1080 as its only a tad more expensive.
