Hi, I definitely know that I am getting a geforce gtx 960 but I am having trouble deciding which card to get. If there is a reference card with an illuminated geforce logo then please let me know?

Does it have an illuminated logo on the side???

 

I don't think so. But it's the value option, what did you expect? There are no silver windowed ones for the 960.

Any reason you'd go with a 960 over a Team Red card at the same price point for better performance?

No. Only the 970 and higher does. 

Our Grace. The Feathered One. He shows us the way. His bob is majestic and shows us the path. Follow unto his guidance and His example. He knows the one true path. Our Saviour. Our Grace. Our Father Birb has taught us with His humble heart and gentle wing the way of the bob. Let us show Him our reverence and follow in His example. The True Path of the Feathered One. ~ Dimboble-dubabob III
