[SOLVED] Cheap rtx 3080 or good 3070

[Surg44]

Hi, I'm just after some help and was wondering for a GPU upgrade is it better to get a good 3070 if I am after good cooling because I live in hot climate, something like a gigbyte Aorus RTX 3070 master. Or go all out for the more powerful 3080 but a cheaper brand like PNY 3080 that I can get for the same price.

You can always add more case cooling, put a better GPU cooler or replacing the thermal paste/ thermal pads so in my opinion, the 3080 is a clear winner.
Unless of course you care about the warranty period or how good aftersale service each card offers.

Ok yeah that makes sense, thanks for the reply.
