Zotac AMP Extreme 1080 Vs Asus Strix O8G 1080

[Catalonia]

I'm considering either of this two cards, (here were I live the Zotac is on stock, for the asus I have to wait about two weeks, but I'm not in a hurry)

My MB is an Asus Rampage V Edition 10, and I happen to like quite a lot the ROG logo and the design of the Strix. The Zotac is huge but I won't have any problem since I have the Corsair 780T case. I don't have much information about Zotac, (never had one) so I don't know how would it stand against the Strix, especially about the noise.

Any advice?

Thanks!

The Strix is worth the wait, While the Zotac is built like a tank the Strix would be a better aesthetic match to your setup

After reading all possible reviews, watch all Youtube videos about the zotac and the asus, I decided to get the Zotac, my dealer had 35 on stock!

Is a monster!

About the color match (my case is 780T black, the MB is black, everything is black or red...) this concerns me a little, but I'm pretty sure that once inside the case it wouldn't look that bad, especially if I set up the leds in the MB and the Zotac to red.

I can't wait to receive all the missing parts to start building the rig!

lol at the PSU. TBH mate I would have gotten a far smaller PSU, cheaper motherboard and gone for a better CPU. You could easily save $500 on the board and PSU.
