gpu Which 2060 super?

[Kanbara]

I'm looking to buy a 2060 super, but can't decide between the founders edition, the gigabyte oc 2 fan model and the msi ventus model.
Is there that much of a difference?

i would go for this one cause triple fan so you can keep your GPU nice and cool even after overclocking - https://www.amazon.com/GIGABYTE-Graphics-WINDFORCE-GV-N206SGAMINGOC-WHITE-8GD/dp/B0833BV25N/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=RTX+2060+super&qid=1581642508&sr=8-4

I prefer reference card just because it has the highest power limit. The other cards dont beat the founders at all in cooling either.

To be honest, i really like the founder edition's design, but am not really sure what the different clock speeds amount to.

yes but why would you ever want to waste an extra $120 for the founders edition 

 

and the core clock of the Gigabyte one i posted before has a Core Clock of 1710 MHz

 

and the founders edition has a core clock speed of only 1470 MHz

means nothing, you can adjust it yourself while temperature and power limit determines final OC results (and of course, silicon lottery but you have no control over that)

 

I assume all of them are at the same price btw

I'd avoid reference designs not because of the design, but not as good cooling. Reference designs look great though...

The founders edition is at 399$ at the nvidia page

Do you mean core clock as in base clock? or boost clock?

if it's boost clock the fe is listed as 1650 MHz, and once again, i don't know how much difference the 60MHz make

base clock is only 1470MHZ, boost clock doesn't really matter nearly as much as core clock (Base Clock).

Not the best exact comparison since they are different models but some observations I have had about a couple of those.

 

I have a founders RTX 2070.  I actually love the way this gen looks.  However, I dont know if it is because it gets more power (and therefore generates more heat) or just the fan material itself, but man it is a little loud when it is running hard.  Its not bad at mid-usage levels but if you are at 80%+ utilization it is a little loud for my tastes.

 

I had a gigabyte windforce and gaming OC models in the past (2080).  I really liked the gigabyte cards, I found the cooler to be pretty good, however they were the 3 fan versions, the 2 fan version may be just as noisy as the founders for all I know.  Their looks didnt blow me away, but they are just fine.  And the windforce tends to be one of the cheapest selling versions of most cards which is nice too (gaming OC seems to always be 10-20 more).  Mine both performed great.

 

No experience with ventus, I have always found that to be an ugly looking card and never heard it was a standout.  I would probably buy if it was an amazing deal however

if you can hold on and save up a little more i think a 2070 super is one of the best current GPU's for performance vs price (sweet spot)

Well super Edition is a updated version and you have to pay more but with super version edition it has a batter performance and without Super version is cheaper because of the performance what you pay for, the more you pay means the higher performance you will get and of course more RGB you will get too every Gamer loves it.

I have the gigabyte windforce 2x model, its fans are really quiet, I can't hear them even at 100% speed. However, they're also pretty useless, since the card usually hits 84~86 degrees C under full load and has some coil whines.

 

Since I got it really cheap, and it has 3 years of warranty, I really don't mind the temps nor I care for overclocking it, but your mileage may vary.
