Average AIB with average performance
0 of 1 found this helpful Basically this card functions like any other RTX 2060 super, no need to go in about the performance because there are hundreds of reviews out there.
What I will mention is the cooling/thermals; in an average PC case it will choke and at 100% GPU heat up to 81°C. This is compared to the 71°C of my old GTX970 Asus Strix which I had just swapped out.
Part of the reasons are that the fans are placed too far off the board; the right hand fan is actually not blowing much on the main body and so isn't really cooling where it should be!
Next is the noise; pretty quiet except for one slight flaw. Due to the fan mounts being slightly loose, when the card is installed and the PC is upright, there is a weird rattling noise once fanspeed exceeds 50%.
I managed to minimise this noise by tightening up the screws that mount the fans to the heatsink but I really shouldn't have to do this.
Further to this I have also purchased a GPU support to mitigate any further card sag; the rattling noise is eliminated if I supported the corner of the card which is unsupported. I think this is down to having a plastic instead of metal backplate which means the card is not as rigid as it ought to and thus the plastic fan shroud will bend slightly.
In summary, this card performs as expected albeit with some minor niggles. I don't think I can whole heartedly recommend this as it is already Rev 02 and those issues should have been fixed.
