What is MSI armor

[Yahitay]

Hello there,

I have been on Amazon for a while and i noticed the difference in price between the red MSI (idk its name) and the Armor MSI (about 20~30ish $ difference) , both are 6GB. But i dont know the difference, what is the difference between them, and why to buy (or not) the Armor edition?
(Additional question: What is the difference between armor OC and OCV1 ?)

Thank you.

Armor is just a name of one of their cooling solutions and card themes. The red is probably the twinfrozr series. The armor is a bit lower compared to the twinfrozr. From what I can tell, the ocv1 is a tiny bit smaller and lighter and has an inconsequential 8mhz higher memory clock. So the cards are really similar.

So do you recommend me to buy it if the price difference is 20ish$ ?
