Why are the 1080s all so fucking ugly?

I mean I'm not normally all that autistic about looks when it comes to shit sitting inside my case, but they really are all butt-ugly, with the exception MAYBE of the Strix.

What happened /g/?

nVidia made a ricer reference cooler, and the AIB partners followed suit.

I think the msi ones look pretty good if your going for a red aesthetic
>>
>>55132463
maybe if the red was a bit more muted and it didn't have the leds. But ya, it's not as bad as some of them.
>>
>>55132463
matches my dragon dildo perfectly

>>55131375
That looks pretty cool actually, what's wrong?
>>
>>55132494
The gigantic obnoxious glowing x

I think the Strix and the EVGA cooler looks good.
>>
>>55132512
Looks nice though.

Guess that's subjective though. You probably think it's obnoxious because you're trying not to act your age, stupid twelvie.

ok
>>
>>55131375
Nvidia are simply catering to their target market i.e. gaymerzzz
>>
>>55131375
It doesn't matter how it looks faggot, first is performance, then price.

No.
The Strix looks ok but they you have that lame ROG gaymers crap to deal with.

Asus card for my white theme. Hopefully they make a 1070/80/80ti I can upgrade my 970 for.
>>
Might as well hijack the thread instead of making a new one.

So I used to have a 980 TI and I got my money back on it and have been getting by with a GTX 680. I only play at 1080p and maybe use DSR if the power is there.

1> I haven't had an ATI card since 9600 pro
2> Kinda want the next card to be better than a 980 TI

What do you think, get an R480 and wait for the next shitshow or get a GTX 1070?

Not like there is anything worth playing anyway.

Also MSI or Gigabyte and why? I've had both MSI was flawless and gave me no issues. Gigabyte seemed to be OK but I can shake this flaky feeling after a while.
>>
>>55133943
480 wont be better than a 980ti in performace, but in price/per. If you want it better, get a 1070/1080. but I run 2x2k and have a 970. Im fine here.
>>
>>55132585
He's right, though. You're only worried about it because what will all the other "elite hacker" nerds think if they see your "gayman" video card?

There are lines of cards, from all major manufacturers, specifically designed for actual work as opposed to vidya. Buy one of those. But then you won't be playing your vidya in secret.
>>
>>55134805
I honestly don't even know where to begin with that post so I'll just say jesus is that a leap to make from "these cards look ugly"
>>
>>55134925
So go get you a vidya gayman card then.
>>
>>55134940
I'm happy with my current card for now, thanks

Only nice looking card to me is the Asus Strix since it has a pretty mute grey color and nothing to overpowering except the led's
>>
>>55135470
yeah but even the design of that looks stupid if not completely ugly. all those weird bulky jaggies and rounded bits, the design of these cards should be much more minimal, sharper, with clean lines and not too many purposeless edges and angles imo
>>
Founder's edition looks the best desu senpai

That's not half bad.

yep. always desu god monkey chunx punk dunk.

They make them unappealling as a social experiment. They want to see how many dipshits will still go out and buy them just so they can fit in or validate their worth based on an overpriced purchase.
>>
when will I be able to get a 1070 that isn't a founders edition?
I havent been able to find anything about it online

They already released that version. Sadly its black this time.
>>
Why worry about how they look when:
Probably most of you cant afford one
Unless you have some shitty rig with fast and furious lights all over it and a clear side you wont really see it.
>>
I put it in my case with no window and I don't have to look at it anymore.
>>
>>55136220
Palit always makes clean cards yea
