Hey guys, im looking to upgrade my graphics, currently running a GTX 1070 and ideally wanting an RTX 2080, however there are so many versions of the 2080 and all at wildly different prices. any RTX 2080 owners out there want to give me some tips on what and where to buy????
Theres no real difference between all the different RTX 2080s.
They pretty much all hit a baseline spec and then third parties may overclock it from the factory.
But realistically all you are paying for when going up and down in price is the warranty and the kind of cooler they are using.
So check size to make sure it fits.
IF you have a windowed case check that you like how the GPU looks.
Bigger/better coolers will let the GPU clock higher getting you more performance.
If you could cool all the different RTX 2080s to the same temperature, they would boost to within margin of error of each other at the end of the day they are all still just 2080s.
Im not one for RGB, but the kid in me abolutely loves the way the Aorus cooler looks and the rgb effects it can pull up.
