Greatly apreciate those types if videos, comparing different brands. Keep the quality!
I love how you point out that in gameplay we won’t be able to telll the difference but fan noise and temps and power consumption so matter and they are the decision makers / deal breakers.

@carlr2837

Exactly. The only two things that really matter is noise and temps. I have heard that for every 10 degrees hotter a chip runs, it reduces the life by half. Thus, the memory chips in an Aero will be about 6-8x longer than the memory chips in the Asus Dual fan model. If you change boards every year to the latest and greatest, that doesn't matter, but if you normally run the same video card for 5+ years (or if you buy used cards), it may be of greater significance.

@carlr2837 yeah thats bs, higher temps and thermal cycling will lead to lower life span, but its nowhere near the half for every 10°C lol

@@ThunderingRoar That rule is based on applying the Arrhenius equation, but that only applies to certain types of degradation. In many cases the equation has provided accurate predictions, but there is some debate how broadly it applies. For my purposes, it is close enough. I have no doubt that a CPU or GPU will last a lot longer at 70 degrees than at 100 degrees. Whether it is a difference of 8x or not, I can't say, but I do try to keep my chips at lower temperatures.
You and your team always do such a great job. Thanks.
Hello. Great channel that already helped me to get the 990 Evo ssd as os drive and now I am here for the GPU. I could get my hands on both the founders edition and the windforce for 590€ both. The comparisons says that the windforce is louder but cooler than the fe. What's about coil whine? And which of these would you pick considering the price point? Thanks and keep going.
I have the Asus Dual, and my core temps sit around 73c with fans spinning 47-50%. We are currently in midst of summer where I live (Zambia) with average temps of 34c. Perhaps that explains my high temps.
Thank you for the information
Would it be possible to include what MSI Afterburner can raise power levels to? I.E. on my 3070 I can extend power to 109%. I’m not asking what performance result happens, but I am curious what OC is possible between the cards and helps with decision making for me and I’m sure others as well. Great work and thank you!

I got a Zotac Twin Edge 4070 Super for £50 off it's normal price of £589 in the UK in a flash sale, so cheaper than the non-Super MSRP! It's more compact than any of these other cards, good for a SFF mini-ITX build, but I really don't like Zotac's current designs - I much prefer Nvidia's FE aesthetic and all-metal build. Still, it runs quiet and fairly cool for its size. The best thing is you get 5 years of warranty - 3 years as standard with 2 extra years if you register within 28 days of purchase.

Would you pay a bit extra for the dual vs Ventus oc? £13 difference (543 vs 530)
Please help me: I bought an asus dual and it had crazy coil whine and a few quirks that annoyed me like it wouldn't stop changing the max fps in Nvidia settings to off. It was driving me nuts. Also it randomly bsod. So returned that. Currently looking at what else is avail. I was going to get msi(saw the vrm heating issues) so atm the gigabyte 4070s gaming oc as it's on sale for 629. Does anyone know if it directly compares to the aero? It seems like the same cooler and heatpipe design but I haven't really been able to find any comparisons like this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also I am getting it from best buy because shipping has been a nightmare. Currently ups has sent the return 4070s to Indiana and then back towards me on the east coast and now it's been mia for 4 days. I dropped it off March 21. Lol so yea Im over shipping expensive pc parts as this is the 2nd time now I got a package damaged and then it had an issue. It sucks because Amazon is hard to compete with when they will have a gpu at your door same day.
I bought the FE. I always wanted a FE and the all black is super nice and premium. It's really quiet, no coil whine and playing HFW temps stay nice and cool, under 65degs. I always had coil whine with Asus cards.
I spent $600 on my 4070 super the fact that it's mid-range makes me sad. Post covid PC gaming can kind of suck sometimes lol

Truth what you said about coil whine. It is not a characteristic of a card, but more the combinationation of power supply and card. Some Outubers say it is more likely to occur with highly efficient power supplies and single cables leading to gpu. In other words, choose adequate psu.

As for the minimum speed being 30% and still too noisy. I think your card has an issue.

There is little reason most of these should be fatter than dual slot save to plump up AIB partner profits and stroke buyers' egos. We're being conditioned to see bigger as better; however, Ada cards from this level downward just don't really justify being matched with big heatsinks. First, the review notes "none of them are super loud", and indeed some of the quietest are the smallest in volume. There also isn't any massive separation in performance between anything in this roundup; Nvidia demands tight controls on what AIB partners can bring to market (except size, where apparently 80-class coolers can be reused for even 60-class models now). And Ada efficiencies over Ampere also allow us to look for cooler designs on a diet. There is some width and length to play with to offer in lieu of the now almost-default triple-or-quad-slot heatsink design, too. What do we get back -- besides the insanity? Well, hopefully some sticker price. But for sure we get at least one PCIe slot back with most motherboards (interestingly, only Gigabyte ATX boards have layouts that make room for triple-slot GPUs without blockages on dual x16 secondaries). And to be clear, I haven't said to spike all the big boy coolers. They just need to be reduced in number.
If anyone cares, dont get the Palit Ghost OC, looks like its only sold in the uk via overclockers. it clocks high, im sitting at 2.85 and its stable,. but my god the fans are crap, like really bad. leaving it stock and it hits 90c + on the hotspot (via HWmonitor), even undervolted to .975 i have to ramp the fans above 2k rpm to get it stay below 90c, and the fans are loud, really loud, and there is a mechanical hum from the fans if you set the speed above 600rpm. I love what the 4070s can do, but i regret buying this model. lol
