Which GTX 1080 do I get? I have a mid tower so no compatibility issues. I want aesthetic and good utility software too.

Since you've got a mid tower,  you won't need something like a mini

and (assuming you have enough airflow) you can easily get away with an open air style cooler.

Other than that, just pick you think looks good.
