RTX 2060 FE or MSI Gaming Z

Go to solution Solved by martward,

Well if aesthetics are a consideration, i'd get the FE. I'm still regretting my choice for a gigabyte model, not because it's bad but it's butt ugly compared to the FE.

Soon I will be buying new GPU and I am wondering should I buy RTX 2060 Founders Edition or MSI Gaming Z model.. I am only worried about the temps becouse I heard a lot of negative stuff about FE version.. Thanks

Both are good, so which ever one you can find the best deal on.
