Choosing a GTX 1080

FireCharge

Going to get a 1080 today/tomorrow (pretty nice sales atm), and due to my limited budget here are my choices:
Palit JETSTREAM

Palit GameRock 

Palit SUPER JETSTREAM 

Gigabyte Windforce X3

And if I manage to stretch my budget by a little bit more I could get the Strix A8G/O8G.

 

What do you think?

 

My budget is pretty much at the GameRock mark, the SuperJetStream (which to my understanding is supposed to be binned for OCing) and WF3 are slightly over my budget whilst the Asus cards are about 10% off of my budget (in local currency)

Thanks :)

In terms of performance and PCB design, the Palit Super Jetstream is the best. Features RGB lighting too.
However if you can spend more, I'll recommend Asus cards.

Palit SUPER JETSTREAM looks decent enough.

Performance wise, all should be the same.

I owned the Super JetStream befire jumping ship to the Ti last week and it was fantastic. It does 1911-1949 Mhz out of the box, the cooling is superb and it's also pretty much silent. Having RGB and especially Dual BIOS are killer features, too. Only downside to it is how thick it is, at 2.5 slots.

 

If there's room on your case, you can't go wrong with the Super JetStream.
