Im getting a 980Ti

 

Is It still worth it buying it now?

 

Also, im considering which gpu manufacturer to go with.

 

My pc build os orange and black unfortunately. Will a msi gtx 980ti gaming 6g look fine im the build?

You've got a Fury which I'd say is more than enough to wait until Polaris/Pascal hits.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

Can you get the Matrix where you are?

 

It's Black & Grey & Orange, and one of the top 3 980 TI's on the market right now.

Keep the Fury. But you will be waiting awhile for a replacement. The first "lot" of Pascal/Polaris wont be a 980Ti equivalent it will be a 970/980... you will have to wait longer for them to produce a 980Ti tier replacement.

I can still get to return my fury for 100% payback.

 

Do you think it will look stupid with the red and black msi card? 

 

My asus fury os also red, and doesn't look that bad in the case, also i use damped orange Lighting in the case, which might be a difference ;)

I can, but its a $100 price premium over a msi gtx 980ti gaming 6g ;)

 

Maybe, the msi gtx 980ti golden edition would look good?

Not sure, but if you can afford the extra $100, do it! The card is beast.
