Which 680 to get?

Hmm, those EVGA ones were not in stock when I ordered my gigabyte about an hour ago.

Might have to look into switching over, though tbh not sure if is worth it.

The EVGA signature 2GB is the best bet at the moment, but still, it is a £70 premium for getting rid of a little bit of green. Can't justify that...

I hesitated for a second then told myself off and ordered the standard one, I doubt in real world performance I would be able to tell that extra £70 of performance..
 
Well thought it over and after speaking with OCUK I'll just keep the Gigabyte one.

£10 more and removing stock cooler isn't covered by warranty but I'm not planning on watercooling or changing the cooler anyway.

On the upside supposedly Gigabyte has a much faster RMA process than even EVGA, so I'm not going to lament the slight saving and more flexible warranty I'd have got with EVGA.

@G4cE Thanks for the heads-up about the EVGA cards. My order was being held up due to the card being OOS.

Phoned them up and my Z77 build is now on my way.
 
I have decided just to wait a week or so, by that time exams are over and the build will begin. No surprise if something more interesting comes into stock in that time.
