Question RX 7800 XT differences

[davidgamer90]

Hi all, I am changing the GPU in my SFF PC, (Lian Li Dan A4-H20)
I am looking at the 7800 XT, and am between 2 cards, mostly due to the price difference but cooling will also be a factor here due to the case size.

My options are:
Sapphire NITRO+ AMD Radeon™ RX 7800 XT
or
ASUS RX 7800 XT OC 16GB Dual Video Card

Considering the price difference is almost 100 euro, will there be a huge performance / temperature difference here?

Looking for opinions
Cheers

Have you verified the length of each to fit your small case?

For context you might want to include the price of the cards.

The case you've got supports a maximum of 322mm, while the Sapphire card is 320mm so you're cutting it quite close. One thing I will ask you to do, regardless of what GPU you pick up...is to undervolt your GPU, so you can save yourself some heat dump inside your chassis.

It is 468 euro for the ASUS card and 550 for the Sapphire where I am,
I was thinking the ASUS would definetely fit better, although the Sapphire has a bigger heatsink, the smaller card might allow better airflow overall.

I have seen a few good build videos with that case on YT. I want to say that one of the builders actually pulled the graphics card side panel while gaming.

I have already been using this case for a year without issues. Just looking for a graphics card upgrade.

As long as fit isn't an issue, get the less expensive one. Performance will be very similar overall.

Agreed with COLGeek, they should perform about the same, so if the cheaper one fits, go with that and save 100 Euro's.
