I am back again, and this time I've decided to go with a Black / Red setup considering my current one is already black / red and it'd just be a lot easier, I am also going to be approaching this a lot differently from how I approached it asking for the best white / black 1080 ti setup.

 

[REQUIREMENTS]
Do not quote my main post.

Post the PCPARTPICKER Text Markup (Best way to title it) FIRST; Then what you have to say after

Red / Black

Can be a 1080, or 1080ti; Be budget-friendly. ;))

 

I mainly ask for that because it makes it easier for me to read everything and helps me out a ton.

Winner will get a cookie and "Best Answer".

 

Cheers,

Shane.

Why is that one better than, say, the MSI 1080 X? I don't feel like doing research, lol.

The strix is about even with the gaming x

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

Does the Gaming X has a red / black backplate?

It has 3 fans

Looks better IMO but it has 3 fans so it'll be quieter and more effiecnt

Actually the 2 larger fans on the gaming x will perform on par with the 3 smaller fans on the strix.

Just FYI that 1080 ti I linked will be about 30% better than a 1080.

The ASUS STRIX ROG has neat boost clock speeds though.

I heard 35%, but I'm looking to play games like GTA V, PUBG, and CS:GO at 1080p. I also want my computer fast so :P

FFS just OC buy yourself learn how if your spending more than 500 on a GPU(excluding RX series)

I just think the subdued look on the strix with some nice Red LED accents will look better,completely personal opinon though

They should all go about as high, if you want the best boost clock get a seahawk X or similar aio integrated gpu.

I don't understand why you're getting mad at me? I was complementing the boost clock speeds on the GPU. But I did some research and found out ASUS has shitty QC, poor customer support, and some others not really worth stating.

Do they sell them for their hybrids? Was just looking at the 1080 hybrid FTW.
