Hoping to get some help from people with this card - which 980 Ti shall I get?

I'm stuck between the Asus Strix, the MSI 6g or the Gigabyte G1 (I hear this one suffers from coil whine - i want it as quiet as possible with great cooling and overclocking potential)

Getting my zotac amp! replaced as it was pretty terrible for me.

Any help would be appreciated, thank you!
 
Ah that sounds good - my Zotac Amp! was getting to 80C with no overclock with fans @80% on an early english morning with all windows open (with a custom profile temps would almost reach 90C at 1080p...) sounded like a hoover.

MSI was my first choice - will likely go with that.

What's their warranty like?

I'm confused how my amp! seemed so damn loud when on the chart it comes before the MSI, GB and Asus card - was mine just badly made? (Mine wasnt the extreme, but on some reviews it states 41 DbA under load... )

Choices so far are MSI and Palit - anyone else have these cards that could pitch in? thanks.

I have 6 case fans - two intake at front - One 140mm on the case side pointing directly at the GPU and one at the bottom of my case intaking to the GPU then the rest exhaust.

My 980 beforehand only got to 70 on load - also the zotac was idling @ 55-60 (even with the fans @20%)
