I need some help.

So i just bought from the nvidia's website https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/graphics-cards/rtx-2080-ti/

 and i was just wondering like after i bought the gpu a lot of people said i made a bad choice. Like the cooling is bad on this one? U can't create a custom fan curve or something? I have the evga gtx 1080 ti now  and it comes only with 2 fans.  And if i set a custom fan curve my temps wont exceed 75. Is the founder edition that bad?

Stock fan curve open air system would be around 73C going based on some reviews of the FE card. Just RMA with Nvidia is a pain in the butt to deal with it.

Yeah but 73c is good isn't it?

Yes it is, but going with an AIB Partner for the card would give even better clocks meaning you can hold higher boost speed states for longer.

It's within design specifications.

What temperatures you will experience will be subjective to the environment they're in; airflow in your chassis and ambient temperatures. This needs to be understood.
The stock 20xx cooler isn't fantastic, but I believe it's performing better than blower style cards of past. Non-reference coolers can achieve better temperatures and/or better overclocks.

So i guess i made the wrong choice. Damn

I can create a custom fan curve though right? Like my evga sc2 1080 TI right now has 2 fans and i still can create a custom fan curve and get my temps 73-75c. What about the speeds like i aint going to enjoy the speeds just because its the founders edition?

Using something like Afterburner, yes, you'll be able to set your own curves.

Again, what temperatures you get (and as a direct result, what your boost or overclock speeds are going to be) will depend on the airflow in your case and ambient temperatures of the air being fed to the cooler. You shouldn't experience any massive thermal throttling unless you've got a bad card, a faulty cooler, or genuinely bad airflow in your chassis (if you live in hell, you'll also probably see some pretty hefty thermal throttling as well, at least until your rig melts in the fires of damnation)

It's not as though it's a earth-shatteringly bad cooler, it's just not as good as it could be. Being a founders edition, you'll have the option of an abundant choice of compatible water blocks should you decide to watercool it some day as well.

I wont get any throttle if i my temps wont exceed 75c right?

I believe the 20xx series cards begin to heavily throttle at 88c. I don't know if Turing is as sensitive as Pascal when it comes to temperatures, however. I've had no interest in moving up to the 20xx series because of their outlandish cost, and as such, don't know them all that well.
