Hi, which 980 Ti do you guys think I should buy?
I was looking at the Gigabyte G1 Gaming, but I am still very unsure.

Thanks.

The G1 Gaming cards have always been some of the top cards. If you're getting a non-reference air-cooler 980 Ti, get that one. If you want to spend a few extra bucks to keep your GPU cooler and maybe get some higher overclocks, get the Hybrid water-cooled version from EVGA.

Gaming g1 is very popular and reviewed well. I've owned a gaming g1 970. Was a great card till I sold it and got a evga gtx 980 SC acx 2.0. Also a very awesome card. Would highly recommend both and they are both high quality in my opinion. The g1 gaming comes with a backplate whereas the evga is separate for 19.99. Evga has better customer service as I had to deal with a gigabyte rma for their r9 290 and it was frustrating at the least. Evga was much more friendly and quick to respond.

I actually do think I will go the water-cooling route. I can see that the Hydro Copper card is more expensive than the Hybrid. Any particular reason for that?

Is the hydro copper Ti even out? I haven't seen it for sale anywhere.

Either way, the hydro copper has a higher-quality water block and is for custom water cooling loops. The hybrid is an all-in-one, and still high-quality, but not for people who have fully custom water cooling.

Thanks a lot! So I wouldn't have to fill up the Hybrids or anything like that? (Sorry I'm pretty noob)

Btw, do you think that 2x Hybrids would fit in this case : https://www.komplett.dk/in-win-grone-big-tower-vitsvart/832560

Thank you

Nope, you just have to mount the radiator. I'm almost 100% sure you could do two hybrids in that case, although if you're going to do SLI the tubing on two hybrids might be a little annoying.
