Water cool

[Alex_Mat94]

Hy everyone, I want to start a new build and I was wondering, if I watercool a 1080ti founders edition will I get the same performance by a 1080ti Asus strix or any othe GPU ? 

Thanks

Yeah it will pretty much be all the same. Just don't get a crappy chinese GPU or one from a brand with bad customer service.

You should get close to the same performance. Obviously there are always going to be some variance in cards, but you should be able to get within a few FPS at most to a good aftermarket card like the Strix.

it probebly will be about the same. if you want to, artic also has some aftermarket aircoolers for the 1080 ti

Founders Editions shouldn't differ at stock speeds.

What they do differ in is quality of the cooling system.

Often being louder and running hotter.

If you plan to overclock, cards from ASUS/MSI/EVGA/Gigabyte that have better power delivery and binned GPU cores will perform slightly better, if you are into that stuff.

Not that good at OC, I just wanted to know if the performance are the same if both are watercooled, because the founders edition costs less then the custom ones.

If the FE is cheaper, as it seems you do not plant overclock and mind the extra noise/heat? I'd go for that.

A water cooled GTX 1080Ti would offer better cooling and offer you decent overclock.

Then the difference is a few frames. So get the FE one.
