[SOLVED] ASUS Geforce GT 1030 Fanless vs Gigabyte GT 1030 Silent

I was thinking of giving myself a good generalist MidTower Desktop: mostly office, some video editing, some games, multitasking, no overclocking, most important silent.
For the video card I was thinking about a passively cooled fanless and my attention has focused on:
ASUS Geforce GT 1030 Fanless 2GB GDDR5 Graphics Card
Gigabyte GT 1030 Silent Low Profile 2G
They should be almost identical.
What do you think? Which do you think is better?
Of course Palit GeForce GTX 1050 Ti KalmX 4GB GDDR5 should be better but it's much more expensive and difficult to find. And probably I don't need that much.
Thanks
 
I don't think it really matters. An initial look makes me lean on the Gigabyte card because it looks like they're making an attempt to cool the VRM (not that it really needs it) and there appears to be more heat sink material overall.

But again, I don't think it really matters.
