Hi so I recently purchased all my gear thanks to the advice on this forum.
http://au.pcpartpicker.com/p/rygzVn

All set and excited and then got an email saying the MSI 980ti reference cards (x2) had sold out.
So I need a replacement asap.

I was looking at reference designs as from what I understand the non reference cards blow the hot air back into the case.
From my understanding (mainly based on Tom Glimps site info) it's better to use reference cards to blow the air out of the machine, lowering the temperature.
:?
I'm buying two now but may add a third later.
I have a job coming up and need to get this built asap! :? :? :shock:

Any advice? I've seen cards within my budget from Gigabyte and Galax.

Gigabyte GeForce GTX 980 Ti, 6GB

Galax GeForce GTX 980 Ti, 6GB

Thanks for any help you can give me! :D
