I have a corsair 850w.

Sorry but I can't find it anywhere on that homepage or when I google. I tried over 15 links but couldn't find much.

Can my pc run the gtx 1080?

Would it be better to get the Asus or gigabyte 1080?

Please help
 
As long as it has a full-length pci-express slot, it can run a gtx 1080. That board definitely does. As long as you're running some variety of i5 or i7 on it, it should be okay.
However, for purposes of checking the fit, what case do you have? Also, which model corsair psu? 850w isn't all that specific.

For that matter, Asus and Gigabyte both make more than one model of gtx 1080, although in the US PCPartPicker only shows prices for the "Founder's Edition" models, which as I understand it heavily follow the nVidia reference design, so I'm not sure it makes a big difference which brand you get of those.
 
All founder's edition cards are functionally identical. The majority of the available 1080 are with the same physical envelope as they also use "FE" or reference PCBs. The very high end cards are larger or longer. Just check the dimensions before ordering (though changing a case is a lot cheaper then changing a GPU...)
