Trying to see which card is off.  The top card is slightly dimmer in default white or red.  It's more sky blue.  Bottom card looks like a tinge on the purple side, but closer to white.  I darkened the shot to highlight the color difference, but in person, it's much brighter and color differences is greater using default white.  The longer I look at it, the more I irritated I get.
 
Which card matches the normal FTW "white" color?  Will RMA one of them.

    Honestly luck of the draw, the RGB stuff is not calibrated from factory very well. You will have different colors and hues, it takes a bit of work to get them looking the same, hopefully EVGA releases something to reset the color back to the out of box colors.

    I already RMAd one card because of it, and honestly the new card has the same issue, going to chalk it up to the LEd controller not being a very robust solution, and the lack of a dedicated white LED causes a severe lack in color spectrums, especially in dealing with a white color look.

    In my own personal case, I almost think the brighter card is the outlier in the bunch, the one card I RMAd had about the same brightness as the new cars, so thinking my one card is just a lot more bright.
