The more expensive cards will have more VRAM, probably a higher quality PCB and may have a marginally better cooling solution as you suggested. Also you will find price differences between brands, brands with a better reputation (EVGA...

I have no experience with the ABS brand however I would recommend Corsair to anyone looking for a PSU. The modular HX & AX series really are impressive bits of kit. My HX1000 has been rock solid for over 2 years, it runs cool and quiet,...
