Hey guys,

Just wanted to know what the difference is between these two cards? If i was able to get both of them which should i get? Are they very similar and in the end is it just personal preference?

The price difference between the 2 is about £100. With the FE being £470. So is the ASUS worth the extra £100?

I would currently be upgrading from a gigabyte gtx1080 and mostly need it for VR (Valve Index and Quest 2 Virtual Display) gaming, ideally with max settings and playing at 120hz on the index and 90hz on quest 2.

Please advice! I was initially waiting for a Asus rtx3080 TUF card, but think ill give up on it now as i just cant be bothered to wait anymore :(
 
Oh wow, thanks guys, im also verging on the same opinion that its not worth £100 extra for the asus! I also like the look of the FE better, and the asus might give me a slight boost, but probably only something like 10fps at most.
 
In no way, shape or form is an AIB card like the TUF worth a £100 markup. If you were willing to go that far I'd suggest saving another £100 and going for the 3080 FE.
I would have done the same and gone for the 3080 FE, but no word of stock and ive been checking for a month now! I just cant be assed to wait any longer unfortunetly, im a very impatient person :( especially when it comes to new tech and devices!
