EVGA's PSU cable from the G2, or is it...? It's actually an Asus Strix 1080, which I took a major swing with(no problems so far, actually surprising performance & heat as I've used hybrids since the 980, but more testing.) as I've only ever owned EVGA cards, but after the nonsense with B&H lying and making up dates or whatever really happened, I didn't want to wait longer or continue playing the game of watching and refreshing to compete with everyone else trying to get cards sooner than later. But I don't hold it against EVGA at all, their products/service have treated me well, sooooo I'm just gonna leave that on my card and pretend it's an FTW. I mean, not pretend, it is an FTW. (Unless the 1080 Hybrid entices me enough, I'll come back to EVGA's camp most likely come the 1080ti.)

Ha! QUALITY decals ...
- B&H just raised their prices on most their Evga cards . the FTW was $679.00 Now it's $699.00 ! SC was $649 ..now they are $ 679....They're price gouging and a EVGA recommended vendor.

That's not THAT terrible of a markup. I see Newegg jack prices up well beyond $20-30 on high demand hardware regularly. Many marketplace and ebay sellers are trying to pull 2-5x msrp and that is ridiculous.

Man oh man, what a beaut, look at those RGB LEDs, the FTW rocks.
Lets hope that you do not over heat your card with that label that is blocking the Air Flow on them fins. I can't imagine the dust and dirt that is going to collect under that sticky label. It is almost like putting a bag over your partner.

Wat? It's OK, I'm a professional at being a professional. In all seriousness, clearly, I'm not being serious... PhantomApollyon

I personally think the Strix and the FTW are the best looking 1080s thus far, other than that, all of these cards perform similar enough, that said:
