Question ASUS GPU vs GIGABYTE GPU

[redbioniclem]

Hello!

I had a problem with my graphics card delivery and I got the ASUS GeForce RTX 3070 8 GB KO OC V2.
Originally I was going for the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3070 Gaming OC 8GB. (I wanted the Vision OC because I have a white build, but it was out of stock sadly.)

Now I have confirmed that I can return the Asus GPU and they'll give me the Gigabyte one and give me back 25$ as the difference between prices.

Now I have looked at benchmarks and comparisons between these 2 and the only reason I like the Gigabyte one the most is because of the 3 fans.

I am trying to find thermals benchmarks online but I can't find anything and I was wondering if anyone would suggest I keep the Asus one or get the Gigabyte one.

This is my finished build:

Either one will be fine. The white one would look better with your build, so that would likely be my choice. But, I do prefer Asus over Gigabyte.

Do you have any specific reason why? or is it just a preference?

I assume the Gigabyte one would have better temperatures because of the 3 fans.

I've just had better experiences with Asus. But, as I said, I would likely pick the white one, without any real qualms, for a white build.

there will be no difference between the two. Get the one you will be most happy with in the end because you'll be the one looking at it

Oh ok, I really wanted the vision OC but they don't have it so I might go with the Gigabyte Gaming Oc.

Thanks!

If the Gigabyte isn't white, personally, I would always pick the Asus,

Because of these 2 videos I am going to get the 3070 Gigabyte Gaming OC.
Someday I'll get a 100% white build

Cool. It would appear you already knew which one you were going to get.

How is the Gigabyte working out for you?

I have had no problems so far, temperatures seem great. However the only demanding game I played was uncharted 4 and temps were good.
