Which Aftermarket GTX 1080 should I get, I care about speed over sound but would prefer a quiet card.

both related. i own the strix 1080 and i love it. core stays under 68c, doesn't through out a ton of heat, and i can't hear the fans unless i take my side panel off and stick my head near the card.

and most importantly, the vrm's are directly attached to the heatplate. unlike evgas shitty mid plate design.

I'd go MSI, if I were you.
I have a 1070 and it's really quiet and keeps really really cool.
Bentley Cooper
Alright,
So I have a desktop with a i7 6700k and a GTX 970. I can upgrade to a 1070 or I can purchase a second 970 and SLI for cheap. Am I better with just the 1070?
Jonathan Russell
Yes you'll be better with the 1070.
William Morgan
Okay, that's what I was leaning toward. I just wanted a second opinion.
Nicholas Barnes
The 1070 will be faster than the 970 SLI 9 times out of 10. Plus you avoid issues with SLI.
Adrian Edwards
1080ti
Chase Jenkins
My GTX 780 might be dead. Looking at getting a 1060 possibly. Any general advice?
Adrian Reed
If you're in the US, splurge on a 1070 instead since it's black friday through cyber monday.
Brayden Perez
I'm in the UK. I could super-duper splash out on a 1070 but I don't know how much more worth it that would be, I'm also not sure which version to get for either of them.
Sebastian Parker
I just looked, the black Friday deals on the 1070 are available in the UK too.
That seems to be the best deal.
Easton Richardson
This one is available too, if you want to look like a flaming homo.
Cameron Davis
Shit, man. Thanks for doing the work for me. I appreciate it.
Robert Perry
How long am I going to be waiting for a 1080 Ti lads?
Easton Sullivan
I've got the 1080 ARMOR and its quiet, its nice but I don't like when the power comes out, it hits my cases panel.
Henry Rogers
Your pic explain it all. Speed and quiet. (0db on idle)
Thomas Wood
I do wish Vega will come out, purely as a frame of reference.
Even if it's hot and smoking soon as you turn it on, drains 6000 watts and gets 4fps in crysis.
At least it'd be something.
Joseph Sullivan
MSI Gaming X cards look god awful but have arguably the best cooling.
Ryder Mitchell
They look fine if you have the black/red colour scheme, imo.

>People buying 8GB cards
Do some research to figure out how many times you've used that 8. Hell, Look to see how many times you've used 4.
Hint: It's zero
After that come back here and post about how stupid you feel
Wyatt Perez
Not entirely true.
Many many games already push more than 4GB on 1080p.
Christopher Martin
Which ones.
Xavier Peterson
Dying Light is the big one people complain about. Titanfall 2, Skyrim HD with mods, Arma 3 sometimes can. It's probably safe to assume that more and more games will utilize large amounts of VRAM in the near future.
Most games that utilize lots of VRAM do so because of poor optimization.
Jason Price
Even 8 GB are too low for Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare on max settings.
Lincoln Carter
why do people dislike single fan cards
Lincoln Foster
>there are actually retards who spend more than ~200$ on a video card
just gotta see all those bugs in 1440p 120fps right?
Colton Gonzalez
Got a strict budget of 190 USD, no rebates or selling game codes to make up the difference.
Any chance a good 8gb 480 will be that price, or will I be stuck with a 4gb?
Tyler Reed
Stupid cucks need to stay in their containment board.
