Question Choosing between Asus GTX 1060 Phoenix or Gigabyte GTX 1060 Mini ITX

[User322]

Hi, im choosin GTX 1060 between Asus Phoenix and Gigabyte ITX. I cant find any reviews about Asus Phoenix. In my country Asus Phoenix priced at $30 cheaper than Gigabyte, but guess Asus has worse cooling. Can i go for Asus Phoenix in closed case or is it a bad idea?

The Gigabyte ITX does have a better cooler, but they're both pretty standard. If the extra cost seems worth paying to you, go with the Gigabyte.

It's fine. The gigabyte is clocked a little higher, won't really make any difference that you'd notice. The 1060 doesn't run that hot anyways so as long as there's at least some case airflow you'll be ok.
