Posted June 13, 2017 so i am thinkin about getting a gtx 1080. I have a really hard time deciding whether I should be getting the MSI gtx 1080 gaming X or ASUS ROG STRIX 1080 MSI: good looks, fits my colour scheme, very good cooling performance for a two fan design card ASUS rog: a bit uglier, but slightly better acoustics So do the slightly better acoustics justifiy getting the ASUS one? Price wise the ASUS one costs aroudn 35€ more but that is not too relevant here what do you guys think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted June 13, 2017 You should get the MSI card because you can change the fan curve to be more silent and it fits your color scheme. It's also less expensive.

Posted June 13, 2017 I would go for the MSI if I were you so you can follow your colour scheme + it's very silent during heavy loads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
