I Was browsing for a GTX 960 Card and I came across these 2 cards https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/gigabyte-video-card-gvn960oc4gd (The Cheaper One) and https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/gigabyte-video-card-gvn960wf2oc4gd (The more expensive one) They both have the same ram and the same clock speed,The cheaper one has only 1 display port and the more expensive card has 3 display ports,Is it worth paying more money for more display ports considering i'm planning on only having one  monitor,Does the cheaper one have worse performance which i doubt but should i save my self some money or go for the more expensive one?

Both are not worth it when the R9 380 exists.
