Doesn't really matter either way as you won't see the card anyway.

Don't mind the card, I'm not buying it because my 780 still does the job for now however when the 1080Ti comes out and they use the same design I'll probably get it.

Yes and most windowed cases still don't show the gpu cooler design apart from the side.

That is ridiculous. Pretty much similar to hillbilly car tuning if you ask me. 
Who cares about looks, I care about what it looks like on my monitor. 
RGB is because of people like you lol

Between a rock and a hard place on it. I like it but I don't, it doesn't meet the aesthetic my build is going for, but I have EVGA step-up, so my option is this, or keep a 980 Ti I can't OC.

if you have to insist you think for yourself, i'm not going to believe you.

It has the new-ish more aggressive, industrial look that NVIDIA seems to be going for with the ref--er--Founder's Edition cards, but I still prefer the ACX 2.0 and its cleaner lines.

 

Of course, if cooling performance is drastically improved, I really don't care if there's a picture of a dolphin wearing a swastika on the thing.

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.

Like I give a fuck what you like and dont like. A lot of us like showing our rigs like tuned cars. Stare at your black box, I don't care but a lot of us don't like boring black boxes. Now go back to minecraft French Fry

It is possible to both comment and/or respond to something we do not like or agree with without talking down to/making fun of/attacking the other individual. Lets be adult PC enthusiasts in our responses here not Gawker/Jezebel please.

 

EDIT:

 

IMO it's unfortunately a bit too overwrought for my tastes... For looks, I perfer Stealth bomber to Tuner Car.

Meh, I'm indifferent.  From an aesthetic POV, I think it will find its home in certain "rugged" looking cases.  The good thing about the 2.0 design was that it looked aesthetically pleasing no matter what setup you had it in.  Whatever the case, I'm curious what the OCing headroom actually is on it, having an extra 8 pin connector more than the reference design.

Btw, I also do care about looks of a/my pc. I don't pay money for something to look boring/ugly.

 

Thank you!
