[SOLVED] Founders edition 2060 super? HELP

[Boris12341]

Hello. I am building PC first time. I can get a 2060 super but do not know which to get. Should I get the founders edition or a third party such as the Gigabyte gaming oc 3x? Help please

Preference.

The third party cards usually have a small bit higher clock speed which can mean they have more fans or "better" cooling.

The FE cards look far better than the 3rd party in my opinion.

What should I do? I have the Asus tuf gaming X570 MOBO, it has yellow accents too.

3rd party, BLACK OR WHITE ^^

Then the founders edition one ( I think u know it lol)

 

[Mooons]

FE: 1650 MHz and 2 fans.
3rd Party: 1710 MHz and 3 fans.

I'm assuming they are the same price or almost.

Not much difference. 3rd party might be a little louder because of the 3rd fan. If you don't care about the small difference in clock speed it will be preference.

You can get the 2070 Super founders edition for $80 more at $499

Yes but there is the same 3rd party with 1815 MHz. Is that worth it?

Generally speaking I would not recommend paying much extra for factory overclocks. They're generally very gimmicky modest overclocks, only a fraction of what you should be able to achieve yourself.

Just keep in mind that its not all about power and performance.

Aftermarket cars will have different cooling and noise levels, and also different inputs.

Yea. The thing is Newegg might be wrong. That link I sent says 1710mhz but it might be 1815. I’m not sure. I am very confused

 

[Boris12341]

Do u know the prices for all the cards?

 

[Mooons]

Base Clocks and Boost Clocks.

 

[Boris12341]

Base Clocks and Boost Clocks.

?

 

[Boris12341]

?

Ohhhhhh

 

[Mooons]

Do u know the prices for all the cards?

No. Do your research like Newegg, Amazon, and BestBuy.

I know that BestBuy sells the FE for $499 when I picked up my 2070 Super.

 

[Boris12341]

Ohhhhhh

No no. They are core clocks look here.

Yeah looks like Newegg is displaying the information incorrectly.

 

[Boris12341]

So is

Yeah looks like Newegg is displaying the information incorrectly.

it a 1815? Or 1710

 

[Mooons]

it a 1815? Or 1710

1815. Go with what is advertised on the manufactures website.

Yes the only thing is that I think they make a 1710 model bc bh home photo has it but it is discontinused

Like I said earlier, the small difference in clock doesn't really matter. If you want that 3rd party card get the most recent one.

 

[Boris12341]

It is 1710. On Newegg the manufacturer’s product page brings to a 1710

 

[Boris12341]

So then is it worth it? Even if it is 1815? Would it be worth it. Also do you think the FE matches well with my mobo

 

[Mooons]

Any RTX 2060 will go well with your MOBO. Just make sure you have enough clearance in your case to support a 3 fan 3rd party card if that's what you want.
