I decided to go with a RTX 2080S for my new build, but I can't decide which one to get. I was thinking about going with the MSI GeForce RTX 2080 Gaming X Trio or the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2080 Super WINDFORCE OC.Are there any major differences between the two, other than the obvious ones?

Depends the gaming x trip is amazing with amazing non reference pcb and power phase is binned and the windforce is very close to reference pcb and reference power phase with a modest OC profile 

But it depends on your budget both cards are really good

Thanks for the reply. I have one more question though, what do you mean when you say the power phase is binned?
