They would be almost identical in terms of performance, just go with whatever you like the most or is cheapest. If I had to choose, I would get the EVGA SC. 

Please quote our replys so we get a notification and can reply easily. Never cheap out on a PSU, or I will come to watch the fireworks.

You'd be fine with any of them. Don't use an FE since your case is too large for them unless you'll be placing it against the window.

 

Edit: My vote goes to the EVGA. Make sure you set your warranty on the website.

Here's how you chose a Pascal GPU. Out of all your options,

  1. Throw away any blower / mini versions. Stick only to dual/triple fan ones.
  2. Keep only the ones that look pretty. For example, I don't like the red and black scheme, so MSI's Gaming card would be out for me.
  3. Sort by price.

Pick the first one on the list. Or pay a bit more if you REALLY like the looks of another card that's down on the list. Outside of that, though, there isn't much difference between the cards.

Why do you always say that? FE is superior in smaller cases like HTPC and ITX.

I agree that for that type of case, a blower card is better.

 

But that's a very small portion of users. And going further, 9/10 of that small minority either knows that a blower card is better or at the very least states that they are going for a small rig; on the first case, they'll know this response doesn't suit them (though it's their fault for not explaining their situation) and on the second, I wouldn't even post this to begin with.

 

Besides, we both know that in this particular topic, OP is using a regular case.

I would ask that you re-word #1 so as to not cause confusion. The Core V21 could go both ways.
