Seen good reviews but those cards had triple fans thus unsure if this card is not on par with those reviews. Please advice. Thanks.

Just from looking at it. It is smaller, only has two heat pipes, etc. It won't cool as well as those larger cards, certainly. Doesn't mean it is a bad card/cooler, just why it is cheaper then those other ones.

Just going based on personal experience but you could get a 1080 or 1080TI for the price of that RTX. Only thing you would be missing out on is ray tracing which I'm not impressed with and still has issues in many applications/games due to how new it is.

I went for the 1080TI and couldn't be happier with my choice.
