I really wish u had tested the Asus Strix 1080 with the Asus GPU Tweak New Tweak version 1.2.7.5 . as many of us Asus owners have huge issues with Asus' tweak software , and Aura lighting is in the tools section of the Asus Tweak ll software as a download.

If I buy an ASUS card I can still use MSI AB without problems, right?
For some reason MSI 1080 is insanely more expensive than the other brands here. Might be the same for 1070 and I don't want to drop MSI AB, but since all my last 3 generations of cards were MSI, I was curious if there can be any issues.
You can mix, but I think it is somewhat in the line of having the slowest card in the first slot.

I saw some other test where they used Asus GPU Tweak II for the OC, they mentioned no issues so it seems that it works fine, they got it to 2113 Mhz.

I don't really like these AIB coolers dumping all the generated GPU heat back into the PC case.
Wouldn't something like the original NVidia cooler design be better which sucks air through it and out the back of the case?
