I currently have a 780ti, for about a year already and I want to upgrade to a 980ti.

 

current specs: see signature.

 

The problem is, which one?

 

I wanted to get an Asus strix one at first but they have red markings and that wont fit at all in my green/black build :(

 

So I'll stick to EVGA because I'm really happy with them. Their ACX 1.0 cooler on my 780ti is just dead silent and cools very effectivly.

 

Now I have 3 options and I'm not sure which one to get so I'm asking you guys:

1) The regular ACX 2.0 980ti (at €769)

2) The superclocked+ ACX 2.0 980ti (at €799)

3) The Classified ACX 2.0 980ti (at €869)

 

For option 1/2 I won't need a second 8-pin. (I have custom sleeved cables for it)

For option 3 I'd need a new cable which results in a more expensive outcome.

 

Also, cooler master G750M is enough to power this shit?

 

Thanks in advance!

Superclocked ACX I believe has a slighlty lower base clock than the Classified, but also almost  €70 cheaper so that would be my personal choice. (Superclocked ACX). And a 650W Should be fine.

The most expensive one will always be better in some way, especially if it's from the same company. Yes your PSU is fine, but if you have basically thousands of dollars to spend, how come you haven't upgraded your PSU yet? 

Yea indeed, I might go for the cheaper superclocked one and throw a corsair 850m in there aswell :)

Classified is waste of money since you have to OC it to reach amp!extreme or G1.
