I would first like to say I'm fairly still new to this whole community, I recently built my first pc as I made a little discussion on it about a year ago. perfectly fine everythings good. well I'd like to "upgrade" from a 980ti 6GB to a 1080 8GB but I'm having trouble deciding which because I'm not exactly tech savvy at all actually. I have 3 different 1080's to choose from but I'm not exactly sure which is the best. My limit is basically $750 but again before I buy i'd like to know which to choose.

 

Here are my options, and yes I know the "brand" doesn't matter other than aesthetics and if the brand is reliable or not, but i'm just a tad confused on which one.

 

Any input? 

 

MSI GeForce GTX 1080 OC

Out of the three, the GIGABYTE. Unless you have a small form factor build, the MSI and PNY (which are both blower cards) are going to run significantly hotter and potentially louder.

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