What do you think of 3080FE cooler?

I usually wait for board partner because they tend to have better cooler and power delivery - but their FE around looks pretty good (both in asthetic but especially on that thick heatsink size), so I am considering getting one, do you think it's a good idea if my main concern is overclocking? My reasoning is that FE with their golden sample would at least be overclock better than the cheapest possible third party with reference board (provide that they don't have a large price gap)

As long as it’s easier to take apart I’ll get it or any of the other companies that may use a reference board. 
Blocks and back plates are cheaper and more readily available, so that’s my go to.

I don't plan to take it apart, I also don't think you can apply back plate on 3080 with their new hybrid cooling
