Does anyone know what is different about the Ventus v2?

I've JFG'd and no info, only vendors selling it.
 
I found the differences about RTX 2080 Ventus and RTX 2080 Ventus V2, V2 used binned TU104-400A-A1 chip, it has factory OC, the PCB is custom and card is shorter measured 255 x 127 x 42 mm and it is lighter 856g weight, the cooler seemed shorter and also removed USB-C port. RTX 2080 Ventus used normal TU104-400-A1 chip, it did not have factory OC and probably used reference PCB measured 268 x 114 x 42 mm and weight 955g, the cooler seemed bit larger than V2 and V1 has USB-C port.

TU104-400-A1 are Normal Chips (no factory OC permitted).
TU104-400A-A1 are Binned Chips (factory OC permitted).
Both support manual overclocking

RTX 2080 Ventus V2 look like a bargain card for £650 or less make Radeon VII look bad.

It very hard to find any RTX 2080 Ventus V2 reviews!

Yeah, sorry I forgot my manners and never said thanks too.

So, thanks! :cool:

I didn't commit anyway, waited to see what Navi was like and now I'm thinking of going with a Super version if they're any good on release.
