Palit or MSI?

Go to solution Solved by Shoob,

The Super Jetstream has a better cooler and it will boost a lot more out of the box (2+GHz), but the MSI has a 3 year warranty. It's entirely up to you, since both have capable coolers and are good options.

is that a huge deal, I mean I'm a little worried about weight killing the card but am i just worried over nothing?

My GPU is slightly over a kilogram and it has been sagging for a year and a half and there have been no issues. 

I've just been paid and I'm itching to buy a new GPU as my GTX 760 is showing its age on my 2560:1080 display and I've found some nice deals on some 1060s (6GB) but I'm stuck between buying the Msi Armour OC and the Palit Superjetstream . Both are the same price but the Palit has a bigger cooler but I'm worried about clearance and potential sag as it is so huge (I'm using a corsair 380T, I'm pretty sure it would fit) but the MSI has a 3-year warranty instead of a 2 year one from Palit.

What would you guys do?
