Posted July 28, 2015 MSI and Gigabyte are the better choices. I have the gigabyte one and it's very good and super quiet.

Posted July 28, 2015 Well the Asus one will probably take a long time to get in stock due to some manufacturing error. I heard allot of good stuff about the amp extreme, but keep in mind that it us a 3 slot card. So if you ever want to sli make sure you have enough space. Evga generally has good cards plus good warranty, but if you get a superclocked one you will have a reference pcb. Msi has custom pcb. Is very quite while staying cool. And I heard it is a good overclocker but don't quote me on that. People be looking for a reason to flame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that depends on your fan curve and what game you are playing, but mine is generally not that quiet . But I still love mine. I play with a headset on anyway.

Posted July 28, 2015 MSI and Gigabyte are the better choices. I have the gigabyte one and it's very good and super quiet. Gigabyte has serious Quality Problems. The amount of coil whine G1´s here is ridiculous. And both are slower than than amp! extreme before OC. amp! extreme is very big and heavy which can cause Problems for some Cases/Boards though.

Posted July 28, 2015 My G1 has no issues at all. No coil whine or whatever else. I don't care if it has a lower base clock, it definitely OCs just fine.

The Power of the G1 is without a doubt very good. But it´s the Card i read the most negative about in case of coil whine and noise on LTT.

Posted July 28, 2015 My 980 ti sc acx 2.0 is great. I can hit 1500mhz core on most games and roughly 7700 on the memory. My stable oc is 1443 and 7400.

Posted July 28, 2015 is asus strix in comparison with all these graphic card mention up there? All 980Ti´s are very good and fast Cards. Some are a bit faster some slower, but on a absolutly Highend level. No matter what Card you choose, you will have extreme Power. But there is the Silicon Lottery which can be lucky for you or not. There is no quaranty that you get a card that OC´s well or have no coil whine. Since i own only the Zotac amp!extreme i can only tell you about my experience with this card. I choosed it because i wanted absolutly highend without the OC Lottery and i got lucky, it boosts to 1418mhz instead of 1355mhz which is in the product description. The Card is extreme fast, silent and cool But its very heavy and extreme huge (3slots) CPU i7 6700k MB MSI Z170A Pro Carbon GPU Zotac GTX980Ti amp!extreme RAM 16GB DDR4 Corsair Vengeance 3k CASE Corsair 760T PSU Corsair RM750i MOUSE Logitech G9x KB Logitech G910 HS Sennheiser GSP 500 SC Asus Xonar 7.1 MONITOR Acer Predator xb270hu Storage 1x1TB + 2x500GB Samsung 7200U/m - 2x500GB SSD Samsung 850EVO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted July 28, 2015 Just avoid the reference cooler like the plague. Its not adequate for the 980 ti, which is the hottest running GPU since the GTX 480. All the non reference models seem to perform roughly the same, IE hotter and louder than what people are used to, but cool enough to avoid throttling the boost clock. The Strix seems to perform worst in terms of temps and the G1 in terms of noise, but peoples mileage may vary. I would just go with whichever one looks the best to you.
