Inno3d rtx 2080 super twin x2 OC

I have recently bough a really good new gaming computer and all I need now is to but the GPU. I am looking for a RTX 2080 SUPER. And I can buy the Inno3d rtx 2080 super twin x2 OC in a really good price : 750$ (really cheap relative to the prices in my country). I have a concern tho about it's thermals performance, since it has only 2 fans.

 

I found a pretty extensive review on it : https://www.hwlegend.tech/recensioni/schede-video/inno3d-geforce-rtx-2080-super-twin-x2-oc-n208s2-08d6x-11801167/40/

 

The temperatures recorded here are about 80C on demanding gaming, Which sounds pretty hot to me. I read on NVIDIA's website that the 2080 super can't go above 88C, which is not that far from the results in this review. And I also know that higher temperatures can cause the chip to lower it's performance so it won't get to hot, as well as shortening it's life. 

 

Moreover, This 2080 super is really tiny compared to other 2080 super models, and I don't really understand how is that, from what I understand all 2080 SUPER should be more or less the same in size, since the card is the same other than it's cooling. should there be a concern here?

 

I can buy some Gigabyte 3 fan model of the 2080 super, but that would mean spending almost 200$ more (yes the prices in my country are crazy, lots of taxes), and I don't know what to do here

Is the standard 2080 available?

 

Tbh the cooling isnt bad if you do undervolt the GPU without overclocking (done by setting a lower power limit while overclocking, aiming to get similar final clocks at a fraction of the power), it's just no longer "plug and play without worry".

That just means it's a custom card. Reference cards (Nvidia calls them "founders" since 10 series) are 10.5" long (266.67mm) and most 2080S cards exceed it anyway.

Isn't a smaller custom card means less performance ?

Smaller card means less space for components, that's it. You can put better parts on small cards, you can leave empty space or use worse parts on big cards, so this doesnt mean everything. On AMD's side you even get high end cards with coolers way longer than their PCBs (not sure why they dont do the same to Nvidia).

How is it possible to undervolt the GPU and get the same clocks? How is it making sense

Undervolting is just overclocking in reverse. Rather than using the leftover potential to go faster, you use it to save power. Default voltage is almost always higher than what is needed to be stable.
