Which GTX 980 Ti is the best out of these three? MSI 6G, Gigabyte G1, or Asus Strix for more FPS in games like GTA V and BF4. I will SLI the cards.

Get the cheaper card and overclock it yourself.
That's the card that will get the best performance.
I have the 970 version of that MSI card and it overclocks easily.

G1 has better performance, but on some countries Gigabyte has only one year warranty. Here in SA is one of the cases, while MSI offers three.

These cards perform better than EVGA, for my build I am choosing either Gigabyte or MSI. Most people say Gigabyte is the best 980 Ti.

The gigabyte may look like it has better temps at first glance but it's fan curve is a lot more aggressive resulting it being louder compared to the MSI and Evga cards but this does result in better temps (a few degrees off for a few more decibels of noise).

 

The performance of the cards depends on the clock they boost to which varies between each card so you would want a better binned chip and since @ZetZet talks about Gigabyte chips being better binned then go with the gigabyte card then.

I prefer EVGA because I like their ACX 2.0 cooling solution.  It is quiet even when running overclocked.

 

MSI would be my second choice.  ASUS makes nice motherboards, but I've had too many problems with their GPUs over the years.
