Hi, I had 4 questions:

1.) Msi RTX 2060 Gaming Z or ASUS ROG STRIX RTX 2060

2.) Asus ROG strix RTX 2060 has both 6 & 8 pin power connectors, Does it mean I need to plug both to get it working or 1 of them? 

3.) Are minimum powers different for these cards? (500w for rtx 2060 according to google is the minimum +600w recommended and I have 550w) I mean does Asus one cost more power than Msi one? 

4.) which one is overall quieter, Better, cooler? (idc about price)

thanks for all responds.

@Jurrunio already answered most questions.

 

But i have to bring it up: The RX 5700XT is the same price in most regions, while performing in another class. With the 5700XT you can currently have the top models like the Nitro+ or Red Devil for the same money you plan to spend on these 2060's in germany.

If someone did not use reason to reach their conclusion in the first place, you cannot use reason to convince them otherwise.
