is the new EVGA 980 Classified the fastest 980 to date?

I plan to go the 9xx series route. Most likely going to get one of the 980's. There are like 20 different 980's to choose from. The Classified seems to be the highest price of them all. I've looked at the specs on a lot of the 980's. Anybody on here looked into this?

The Classified is made for overclocking, so if you're overclocking it's as good as it gets (at least for now). If you don't plan to OC, look at the Gigabyte G1 or MSI Gaming.

What do you know of the ZOTAC GeForce GTX 980 AMP! Extreme Edition?

From what I've seen, it's a pretty good card. I wouldn't buy it over the MSI or G1 though, especially not when the MSI is priced $30 lower.

I was just on Ebay looking for the best prices. I stumbled across a 980 I've never seen before. Its a GTX 980 HOF. It's all white. It doesn't match my build at all, but do you know anything about it?

The HOF would be about the equivalent of the Classified. I haven't seen a review of it yet, but it looks like a great card.
