MSI 980 Gaming vs EVGA 980 ACX 2.0? Or other with same price?

[Siegfriedm]

As title says, I just want to decide between these 2 models. Asus Strix is too much expensive

What do you suggest? Or you have a 3 choice in same price range?

MSI!

Just because I like the looks of the card better, both are great cards.

if your case has a window go with the one you think looks better

Between those two? MSI.

But if another is an option, get the Gigabyte G1 Gaming. Lowest temps on all of the benchmarks I've seen and a higher OC than the MSI or EVGA.

MSI has the least amount of problems (along with gigabyte). The EVGA cards are known for coil whine in this generation along with the least effective cooling solution. The only problem with the MSI model is the bending/sagging.
