Does fan size in GPU really matter ?

I AM BUILDING A PC FOR 3D RENDERS AND GAMING.

THIS 2 MODELS HAVE DIFFERENT COOLING DESIGNS WITH LITTLE PRICE DIFFERENCE. BUT DOES THIS LITTLE DIFFERENCE WORTH THE EXTRA CASH?

 

 

GALAX 2060 super 8gb 90mm x 2 fan

 

GALAX 2060 Super 8gb 100mm x 2 fan

Depends. Blowers suck and some air coolers are subpart while some are not bad. 

What are they both priced at?

Around 30usd difference

Performance will probably be about the same. Silicon lottery will affect that more. The 100mm fan version will be quieter though, at the same temps. Most likely...

 

You have to decide if being able to run quieter is worth the cost difference.
