I'm confused which these two GPU should I get for my RIG, EVGA 1080 FTW or the 1080 Strix.

 

any opinions which GPU looks good and best to get?


My case will be Phanteks enthoo Evolv Tempered Glass btw.

 

Thank you guys!

Oh didn't know there was another FTW model. I'll try to check the others I'm not sure. But among those three what are their ranking based on their performance?

IMO I'd go for the EVGA. EVGA is known for their better aftermarket service and EVGA cards are pretty solid IMO.

The STRIX has the better cooler. EVGA has the better customer service.

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

It's subjective. Not really a fan of either to be honest but the STRIX looks nicer in my opinion.

the Strix is the only card that dosent look like garbage out of the two IMO. EVGA cards just look bad, the quality and service is nice but the cooler sure dosent look any good

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

Aesthetically i'd go for the strix but in terms of performance they're both beasts. I'd just say if you're getting the FTW 2 or the one with ICX i think i'd go for the EVGA as far as i know they are the ones that has the sensor which you  can monitor vram temps and stuffs. Please someone correct me if i'm wrong.
