I've been looking at many youtube videos about types of gpus and I am so confused because I've seen 2 types of gpus

1. Founder's Edition by Nvidea

2. Normal GPUs by MSI,EVGA etc

Now my question is which is better? Which performs the best? I'm talking about 1070 amd 1080 gpus and which is worth to buy

 

I leave this question to all the experts to answer

Strictly speaking not the best way to seperate the two types of coolers, which are 'blower' and 'open'. Add-in board partners (so MSI, EVGA etc) can also make blower cards that work just like founders cards

As for which type to go for, it's always open type for cases with good airflow, blower type for cases with bad airflow. Price is still a major consideration though.

Besides open and blower cards since blower cards have bad air flow so which of the Nvidea partner cards like MSI, EVGA etc do you recommend for good performance and life span?

Pretty much all of the major brands, like MSI, EVGA, Gigabyte, Asus, Zotac, PNY. Not that the other brands are bad, they just dont have as much of a reputation as the major ones.

Performance are largely the same, as you can overclock them yourself. EVGA has superior customer service though so that's what I prefer.
