Which 1080ti?

[MOP_LV]

Hi! I am about to buy a used gtx 1080 Ti but I have two options- Zotac Amp! Edition and MSI Gaming X. Which one has better thermals, is better performing, better overclocking? The price is almost same.

They are both great cards and are about the equivalent to each other. I'm personally biased towards MSI so I'd probably pick the MSI card over the Zotac card. 

 

This is from the graphics card tier list. 

 

 

Tier B High-Midrange (great pcb, great aircooling)

Asus: ROG Strix

Evga: FTW3 Ultra, FTW3 Elite, FTW ACX 3.0, FTW ICX

Gigabyte: Aorus Xtreme, G1 Rock

Inno3D: iChill Black

Gigabyte: Aorus, Aorus Xtreme

MSI: Gaming (X) Trio, Lightning Z, Duke

Zotac: AMP! Extreme, AMP! Extreme Core

Get the MSI. The Zotac AMP had quite underwhelming power delivery if I remember correctly.

 

best to double check with Gamers Nexus PCB showdown or from Actually Hardcore Overclocking (buildzoid) on YT

I also remeber the same with their rtx 3000 series. Might be wrong tho, do not remember where i found that info from...

 

Would go with MSI if they are the same price.

Gaming X IIRC had the quietest coolers due to tow larger and slower moving 100/110mm fans as compared to most of the 90mm three fan options on the market, but they all performed the same in games and thermally (within a few º's of eachother)
