Which 1080 TI flavor would you pick?

Minemine12

Title says it all. EVGA FTW3 looks really nice as does the Zotac AMP xtreme.

End of the day most aftermarket cards are pretty similar and EVGA's customer service and general ethics stand out to me, so I normally go with them.

yea I have had some Good EVGA cards and RMAed a 560 ti. It was pretty seemless. I have a 970 from MSI right now thats pretty good but i have hear the thermals are bad on the new MSI cards

Really? I haven't heard anything about poor thermals on MSI cards, well the flagship ones with Frozr coolers anyways. But yeah besides EVGA I would also trust MSI and Zotac, and to a lesser extent Gigabyte and Asus.

I havent looked into the Poseidon too much but it seems like its kind of a waste to water cool and also have air cooling. Is there some sort of advantage to it?

Nope. no review for Poseidon yet. Or if there is I would not bother to check since I am no mobile

 

To tag people first type @ symbol

Then type my name. It shoud come up as a list. Then click on my name in the list. If no list shows up reload page

The result should look like this

@deXxterlab97 got it. 

 

Id love to see some reviews on that card though. It looks soo sexy. Im kinda surprised they dont do more views on cards like it. It would be really interesting to see them compared.

I only buy evga purely for warranty but also because I think they personally make really good gpu's (ther custom pcb's anyway like the ftw or king pin or classified cards). I see a lot of people say zotac but they always screamed bargin bin to me. Maybe Ill give them a try for something a little north of 100 but other than that dont really trust in them.

CPU: 6700K Case: Corsair Air 740 CPU Cooler: H110i GTX Storage: 2x250gb SSD 960gb SSD PSU: Corsair 1200watt GPU: EVGA 1080ti FTW3 RAM: 16gb DDR4

I got the FE first, sold it, then got the MSI Gaming X 1080 Ti, simply because it was all that was in stock at that moment. It'll be here tomorrow.
