for the most part they are all the same.  the only main difference that you will notice is there cooling.  the cheapest option and the one that you want use blower style coolers which generally run a bit hotter then the other tow cards that you are looking at

Current Rig=  AMD Ryzen 9 5900x, Asus Crosshair Hero VIII, EVGA RTX 3070 FTW3 ultra, 32gb Corsair Vengence Pro RGB 3000hz White, EVGA 750 P2 PSU, 1TB Samsung 980 Pro, 500gb samsung 860 evo, 250GB Samsung 850 evo, 2TB Samsung 970 Evo Plus, 2TB seagate firecuda sshd,  LianLi PC 011 Dynamic XL ROG edition, Corsair h150i elite capelix

Hmm, perhaps not the cheapest then? Since with SLI they will probably run a lot hotter and that could be bad in the long run? How about the founders edition ??

the founders edition is a pretty blower design but just as bad at cooling. I would get something better than the Gigabyte G1 gaming because the cooler is trash but something less expensive than the Strix OC.

Can't find a block for the Turbo card. It's also not based off the reference FE PCB either unfortunately. So FE blocks don't fit.

 

Any of those cards and a waterblock would be great. Should all end up near the 2100MHz ballpark. Actually probably wouldn't bother with *that* Gigabyte card. Strix is defo the better option. 

 

Although FE is totally fine. 

 

You'll want to run those on water if you're going for SLi. Even running a single card on water should be the preferred option to keep boost clocks high.

Noise aside they are all the same, overclocks pretty much the same and all... we're talking about 2fps difference tops... so if you don't mind noise go for the FE which indeed is the nicest looking ^^

I love all of your responds, thanks a lot. Is it a bad choice to go with this Gigabyte OC ? Gigabyte GTX 1080 Ti Gaming OC 11GB

Literally any GTX 1080ti with the sole exception of MSi Armor and MSi Aero is a solid pick, being as I mention noise the only major difference between them, pick the one you feel most comfortable with.

Absolutely not. It just doesn't have the bells and whistles that the Aorus has.

Thanks! The best thing about this warehouse store is that I Can return the product within 90 days for a full refund if I'm not happy with it. Which is pretty fucking amazing. So I can try them all really :D

get the damn asus strix (most expensive), should keep your temps under control and come cheaper than a waterblock replacement on the founder or the blower card.

 

maybe the gigabyte but i don't know about their coolers.

 

you are spending on an expensive card, don't make the mistake of going for the cheapest of the expensive cards. the asus strix have better clocks and better cooling.

Cheaper water blocks than the founders edition? is it hard to watercool the founders edition?

go for the asus strix, all of them are still very expensive so get the asus strix as it will serve you better.

 

get this one https://www.netonnet.se/art/datorkomponenter/grafikkort/nvidia/asus-geforce-gtx1080ti-strix-oc/243771.8989/

no, you have to be aware that the founder edition and the turbo card have a blower style cooler, which does'nt cool the card as much as the triple fan setup. Both the founder and the turbo card will run hotter and have worse performances than the asus strix.

 

as for the gigabyte one, it might have a good cooler but i don't know.

 

my friend bought the asus turbo that have a blower cooler on it, and it often hit the temperature limit of 82-83Celsius, at this point the card clock lower itself to prevent heat from rising up.

but think about this. In the future I am probably gonna go with water cooling for my founders edition, then it really doesen't matter right? So I can even overclock them right right?

now what if you don't need to watercool them at all, with the asus strix you won't need water cooling.

 

If you buy a founder edition to put a waterblock on it, you will need to pay a lot more for the card+the waterblock than if you went for just the aircooled strix card.

 

you will also need to remove the blower style cooler and put the waterblock yourself, are you ok with doing that? that's why i pick this card.
