do you know if they both perform the same or have same temps and hwy one has 2 8 pins and why the other has a 8 pin and one 6 pin ?
 

Like Jurrunio said it just for allowing more power draw for "more overclocking headroom". Kind of overkill as he said, since the chip itself probably wont overclock as far to use all that power.

 

Just go with the one that looks better to you, you wont notice any performance difference, and if there is any it is negelable.

I have the aorus and am very happy with it. Nice temps, very quiet, and looks beefy. 

 

The only thing that can bother you are the orange accents of the card itself if you have a color scheme going on.

 

All in all i would suggest the aorus but its really down to your visual taste, cant go wrong with either one

Extra power connectors allow drawing more power, but both have overkill amount. Keep in mind that the reference 1080 has 1 8pin
