The normal selection is pot luck as to what model you get, normally a Palit or Zotac model.

The ASUs is a premium card and you’re securing that exact model.

Hi there! There’s a few areas where this build could be improved so we’ll get that ironed out for you. A question first though, what monitor will you be booking this up to? It’s important to know that info to get the right GPU pairing for your build!

I made a few changes to my initial build based on the feedback and links on this forum.

But still a bit confused on the GPU part.
Any comments or suggestions ?
