HI

I am building a new pc and have been stuck on what gpu to get. I want a 980 Ti but have no idea which one to get, I found a couple of 980 Ti's which all look the same have same specs but the price differs depending on the manufacturer, are they all the same or will it make a difference? any advise is greatly appreciated.

Just and fyi the motherboard I'm getting is an ASUS Z97 GRYPHON

no need to do that. people like a "THEMED" computer system because the colors match mostly.. I prefer performance..it wont work any better or worse if you keep things the same manufacturer or not .. again a preference thing...


read this roundup it will clear things up...

its a personal choice when buying the 980ti in my opinion cause its like the best gaming card no matter how you slice the brands up.. read the links and some reviews to help with the decision making on the brand, overclockability, heatsink and such... I like EVGA... that's my opinion...
 
Thank you, that made my choice so much easier really helpful tip, but I have another question if you would indulge me. Wouldn't a gpu and a motherboard of the same brand work better in tandem than one's of mixed brands or will it make no difference?

I wouldn't mind saving a penny but would rather spend two if it meant all my hardware had better comparability and less issues down the line.
