Best RTX 2070 Super

[sirlamchops25]

My question is pretty much the title - I am looking to buy an RTX 2070 Super in a month or two, and was wondering which model of the aftermarket cards could give the best thermals/ OC ability?

 

I also know that manufacturers launch different 'versions' of the same card, such as the ASUS Strix 8G,  A8G, and O8G. Does the the extra price point really justify the 'extra' performance?

Most aftermarket cards overlock very similarly and generally have very little overall difference in performance. The 2070S doesn't run hot so a two fan setup runs really well with it although a 3 fan setup is always gonna run a little cooler.  if you want a card that's binned a little higher than some others look for the EVGA FTW3 and other higher binned chips although it won't make too much of a difference like I said. Your money would be much better to spent selling your current CPU and upgrading to the 3600. You'll get a way bigger boost than getting a "better" model of the same GPU.

Thanks for the input! The reason why I am looking to get a 2070S is because unfortunately my 1080 was fried by a leakage in my CPU AIO, and I am currently running on a 1060 3 GB. Nevertheless, I am also considering getting a Ryzen 3 chip as well
