Which 980ti

[cadete981]

Hi guys!
Long time lurker first time poster! Finally managed to build my first machine early this year and have decided I need to upgrade. Need is probably the wrong word but hey,
Anyway I want to get a 980ti, I have a 750d airflow case so room isn't an issue. From my own investigations it looks like the Zotac amp extreme is the best choice at the minute, is that correct? Are any other cards a better option? Hybrid? Headed to the states soon so can pick up a bargain so cost isn't that big an issue,
Any and all replays greatly appreciated!

Up to you.
Especially if you overclock, all the cards will end up within 100Mhz from each other, so performance is not on the table.

G1, Gaming 6G, Lightning, Strix, Hybrid (especially if you go SLI in the future), and the others.
There's no best choice, otherwise everybody would have that card.
Maxwell is so efficient that pretty much any card will do, unless you have weird problems (fan controller issue which affects some HoF and Amp! Extreme and coil whine which is unpredictable).
As far as I'm concerned, this gen the GPU choice is what looks good in your case.

If you're picking up somewhere else be careful with the warranty (and think if it's really worth).

thanks razorpakk, so its really just personal preference, liked the amp extreme simply because of the factory clock with it, not sure i would want to mess too much overclocking an expensive card! never thought on the warrenty issue actually! may just pick up in europe to be safe!
