Cooling won't be as efficient. But it will have compatibility with at least one aftermarket water block if you're interested in that.

Performance will be within a few percentage of a partner card, and you may very likely be able to overclock your card to the same level, if not above partner cards. I believe Nvidia has been binning founders edition cards to be among the best since the days of Pascal (citation needed, however).

they aren't that bad this time around, they use good silicon, but there are better aftermarket coolers

 

vega 64 is pretty cheap the last while btw

Seems to be better than most. In every way or equal where it’s not. 

 

And looks better. Prefer the power connector too. It’s what I would get if I needed a 2060 card.
