I want a ASUS GTX 1060 6GB Dual-fan OC Edition VR Ready Dual HDMI DP 1.4 Graphics Card DUAL-GTX1060-O3G so I can match my black and white setup i'm going for, but is it better then a Gigabyte GV-N1060G1 GAMING-6GD GeForce GTX 1060 Graphic Card?

THE ASUS GEFORCE GTX 1060 6GB ROG STRIX OC Edition

(ROG-STRIX-GTX1060-O6G)

https://www.asus.com/us/ROG-Republic-Of-Gamers/ROG-STRIX-GTX1060-O6G-GAMING/specifications/

Has a memory clock of 8208 Mhz

 

 

The AORUS GeForce® GTX 1060 Xtreme Edition 6G (rev. 2.0) rev. 1.0

(GV-N1060AORUS X-6GD REV2.0)

https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N1060AORUS-X-6GD-rev-20#sp

Has a memory clock of 8316 Mhz

 

However that is about the only difference I see.

They have the same CUDA cores among other things as well.

As far as color -you can change that quite easily:

 

Use this tutorial:

 

Using one of these two fans.

or

White scheme applied... or you could use simple black for the fans if more obsidian color is needed.
