Gigabyte GTX 1080 G1 gaming 8 GB vs MSI GTX 1080 Gaming X 8G

[Glowing]

Thank you for everyones help.

I am currently playing on a gtx 770 twin 2gb frozr and its time to upgrade. But I dont know if its worth upgrading to these or if I am better off getting a 1060 at 6gb.

I have been looking at some 1070 ti and 1080's. They are about a 100 bucks different in price. My max is 700 cad not counting tax.

Thank you all.

my system is windows 10 on a x99a gaming 7 motherboard with 16 gb of ram. The display is 2 monitors at 1920 x 1080 with a third(1440 x 900) sitting there for example youtube

If both of those displays are high refresh and you game on both then either GTX1070Ti or GTX1080 will give you a huge performance boost, if you game off just one ( and its also high refresh) then a GTX1070 will do very well, while a GTX1060 is sufficient for gaming on a single 60Hz display.

They'll all run 3 monitors, but do check the card you have in mind has the correct connections, or you have a suitable adaptor for the low rez display.

As for the cards in your first post: there's very difference in performance and both are excellently cooled, either is a solid choice...Take your pick.
