I love Zotac as it is always so much cheaper than other brands at my local shop.

 

However, I moved to a new place, and I can easily buy online, where Zotac is only a bit cheaper than any other better brand such as Asus, MSI, or Gigabyte. I don't find any reason to buy it anymore, unless I need their mini series.

 

Zotac is a good card, never had a problem. It is just a basic card if you don't need any fancy feature such as RGB or 0db fans when idle.

I have a Zotac card, no complaints.  IMO the amp extreme is one of the nicest looking  1080 ti's available.

Want to custom loop?  Ask me more if you are curious

you asked for feedback !!! People just answering you ;) 

 

I have no history with Zotac, but I feel like its a trustable brand, here in CANADA Best buy mostly sells Zotac GPU's ( which is one reason I don't buy zotac since I hate best buy lolll ) but it is surely as good as any other.

 

I just prefer to buy EVGA ASUS or GIGABYTE but thats a personnal choice

Also depends on where you live. Not everywhere is like the US.

can't speak for everyone else, but I typically write off Zotac due to the ugly ass yellow stripe across the backplate on many of there cards, it doesn't fit with other color schemes.
