I was thinking of maybe (finally) building my own desktop after having gamed on laptops my entire life.
I know most people would say that's good, but I had a quick look at NewEgg GPUs and it's maddening.
I filtered on 1080s and there are 25 of them. How do you pick between all of these ? I thought they were all the same.

EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 FTW GAMING ACX 3.0, 08G-P4-6286-KR, 8GB GDDR5X, RGB LED, 10CM FAN,
EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 SC GAMING ACX 3.0, 08G-P4-6183-KR, 8GB GDDR5X, LED, DX12 OSD Support
ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1080 Mini, ZT-P10800H-10P, 8GB GDDR5X IceStorm Cooling, Dual Fans, 90mm Pressure
This is very confusing to a layman such as myself![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Is there any actual difference in performance ? Or do they use different ports to hook into, so that I need to be careful with which MB I would want to use.
Note that this is more of a general question, as I am not planning to buy until next year...
