I believe the founders version has the new reference cooler. The non founders is AIB partners. I think that's what it is but could be wrong.

that's a good question.  Hopefully we can find out soon.

(nothing much has been announced yet so it's crystal ball time if you want to know now)

Solve your own audio issues  |  First Steps with RPi 3  |  Humidity & Condensation  |  Sleep & Hibernation  |  Overclocking RAM  |  Making Backups  |  Displays  |  4K / 8K / 16K / etc.  |  Do I need 80+ Platinum?

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

From what I know, Founders Edition is just a binned chip. I don't really know of any other difference.

I don't think there is anything else than better OC.

But I'm still wondering how much you can OC normal card, and how much can that  founders  edition handle.

Intel i7 12700K | Gigabyte Z690 Gaming X DDR4 | Pure Loop 240mm | G.Skill 3200MHz 32GB CL14 | CM V850 G2 | RTX 3070 Phoenix | Lian Li O11 Air mini

Samsung EVO 960 M.2 250GB | Samsung EVO 860 PRO 512GB | 4x Be Quiet! Silent Wings 140mm fans

WD My Cloud 4TB

Looks like the Founder's Edition is just the new reference cooler, in appearance anyway. That begs the question, what about board partners that make reference models? Will those cards also be considered the Founder's Edition?

|| i7-8700k @ 4.9GHz || Asus Z370-i || HyperX Fury 32GB @ 2400MHz || Nvidia Titan Xp || 500GB Samsung 950 Pro || Deepcool Captain 240 RGB white || Phanteks Enthoo Evolv ITX Glass || InWin Aurora fan kit || Corsair RM750x white || Ensourced Customs sleeved extensions || Tesoro Gram Spectrum white || Logitech G603 ||

There's a tweet from hardware canucks that indicates a shroud with higher quality materials:

I think this seems most likely the case, that both editions will have the same shroud with different materials. It doesn't really make sense to have two different shroud designs for a new graphics card.
