I am ordering my GTX 780 tomorrow and cant decided between :
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121779
AND
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130918

The Asus cools a bit better but doesnt matter the ACX cooling by EVGA is just as good difference of only a few degrees and IDC about noise. Also doesnt matter but ASUS matches my ROG mobo as well. I was so set on getting ASUS until I saw the slower clock speed 941 boost VS evga 1020. But saw review here:

They OC asus to 1090 core with I believe stock voltage. Everyone raves about EVGA customer support as well if anything did go wrong. So should I stick with my original choice of ASUS?
 
I would say the EVGA, they are both almost identical cards, mainly just clock speeds. You can get the asus one up to evga speeds, but with the higher stock speeds you can oc the evga card higher anyway.
