Should i get the Asus GeForce GTX 1080 DirectCU III Strix 8GB which seems to have better fan blades as they look pressure optimised or the Zotac NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 8GB AMP Extreme Edition which has copper heatpipes which are better conductors. I've also head the asus is a very cool temperature running card that you would struggle to get over 70 degree celceous. Any suggestions?

check reviews for temperatures that people are getting in real world tests, then go for the one that gives best performance vs money

Have you tried to perform a sudden temporary interrupt of the electricity flow to your computational device followed by a re-initialization procedure of the central processing unit and associated components?

Yeah I just checked peoples temperatures for the zotac and they are quite high. It seems msi and asus temperatures are low. Now the question is which one.

MSI Gaming is by far the best cooler if you look at temperature/noise ratio and also it don't sag as much.

Agree. MSI Gaming X cooler is powerful enough and is not that long. However, pay attention to the dimensions. Asus ROG STRIX 1080 is dual slot 3 fan and tall, Zotac AMP Extreme is 2.5 slot 3 fan and just a bit taller than bracket, MSI Gaming X is 2.5 slot 2 fan just as tall as Asus card.

@JurrunioI got the corsair air 740 and maximum gpu length is 330mm. I am not sure what to be looking for when it comes to slots. My motherboard is a Z270E

the one that has the highest clockspeed vs temperature ;)

Just took a look at both. Apparently size is not an issue.
