GT 1030: Asus or Gigabyte?

Which version of GT 1030 is better in performance? Is there any noticeable difference?

Really no difference between the two-i'd go for whatever is cheaper.

Agree doesn’t matter but as you seem worried about performance I will point out the 1030 isn’t really considered a gaming gpu as it’s so weak.

I went with Gigabyte, simply because the passive heat sink seems like it can cool the card better.
And it does!
It runs higher overclock, and between 50-58C at maximum overclock and stress test (folding).

GTX 950 is using a lot more power.
