Yes but someone has randomly thrown some red & blue paint on the strix. Must be worth a few grand extra. :)
Might sound crazy but that's exactly what Rolex do!

I like Asus stuff - it does have a more quality vibe than a lot of the other brands but £500 more! The nicest card imo is the FE and its the cheapest (and seems to be the rarest!)

Just crazy - I mean I like ROG gear but not £500 more than the FE. I just wish there was more stock of the FE as other cards are showing up fairly regularly now.

I've always gone for Partner cards in the past, because they've offered more performance and were decent looking.
However, this time around, it's all been turned on its head. The Founders card is actually Thermally and cosmetically designed extremely well.

If the founder's card was made a ROG card it would probably outsell everything else.
The partner cards are definitly not worth more, IMO less than the founders at this point.
 
asus builds out the entire card on an automated assembly line, so they dont pre-heat the baseboard - which is supposed to increase durability and reliability and the output quality is expected to be more consistent than other manufacturers who use manual methods for assembling larger board components
now how much of a premium that should translate to is not easy to guess

I think the only other card I would consider would be the TUF if it was the same price as the FE but the FE is definitely no 1 choice.

lol the cablemod placebo effect doing wonders.. a cable going for 45 EUR got to be some kind of a joke that i dont fully understand

Just wait until we see reports on reddit that their 4090 started melting WITH the cablemod.

Having said that, I did see one CM rep say that in the event that actually happens then the company will replace both the cable AND the gpu.

Everyone is blaming the cables. But the fact that not one founders card has shown this problem as of yet, suspect me to believe there is a possibility that most partner cards are doing something different to Nvidia. I Can't wait to find out the truth.
