GTX 1080 Question

[Ronniem8]

I'm planning on getting a 1080, however most of the cards are out of stock on Amazon (I don't wish to buy anywhere else)

 

I'm deciding between these two:

Gainward NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 8GB Phoenix Graphics Card

EVGA NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1080 Founders Edition GDDR5X Graphics Card

 

I've read reviews on the Gainward card and it seems to be better, but I'm not sure.

 

I'm also deciding on the EVGA due to the AIO cooler they have also released which will keep the temperature of the card down, my case seems to heat up quite a bit with my 960 which is the reason I would like a cooler.

 

My question is which card would be the better one to get?

Also will the EVGA AIO Cooler support the Gainward by any chance?

 

Thank you!

Any non blower style cooler will be better than blower style one.

In this case, get the Gainward one.

I would avoid trying to place a AIO in there because the Gainward cooler more than sufficient. Just get the Gainward card; performs better.

Gainward one is MUCH better.

Or the Palit Gamerock.

Depends on the prices

Case heating up would suggest bad airflow, blower would be better
