So back when I built this computer I didn't have a lot of budget to throw around so I put a decent but far from great card in it. An XFX R9 380. At the time that was a massive upgrade for me. However now days it is a bit old and I have some budget to use this time around so I figured I'd upgrade. Going to be getting the GTX 1070. I could get the 1080 but that is about a $100 difference and while it is an upgrade the 1070 is already a massive upgrade. I don't need to spend that money right at this moment.
However now I actually have to consider brand names. I'm basically torn between the Asus one that the build of the month suggests, and the EVGA one.
Both EVGA and Asus make good products in my experience. I had an Asus monitor forever before I upgraded to the one I use now, and my current motherboard is Asus. EVGA makes arguably some of the best power supplies out there.
I guess I'm just asking does it really matter? Or should I just go with whichever is cheaper or I am more comfortable with buying?
