[NBA] Zotac 2060 vs Gigabyte 2060

[GrunT]

Hey guys!
Even though both of the cards are the same, which brand should I go for ? I just need one thatch reliable like my current R9 380x that has lasted me 3+ years now without an issue.

Here''s the link to the Gigabyte variant

Here's the link to the Zotac variant

The Gigabyte one is just 1k more expensive than the Zotac one. I don't know the specifics about the warranty but the Zotac one comes with 2 years of it according to Czone whereas the Gigabyte one comes with 1 year full + 2 year limited (whatever that means) according to Easetech.

I got the gigabyte one but that model has 3 fans instead of 2.

The two variants easetech is selling in Pakistan both have a dual fan design. Where did you get your card from ?

Had it from Canada. Looks like the zotac card is 1800 boost clock compared to 1700 of the gigabyte one.

Yeap I noticed that.
Any idea who's the official reseller of Zotac in Pakistan ?

I thought so too. But they dont have the RTX 2060 while Czone has it. Weird.

Edit: Nevermind, just saw that they do and they enlist it with 5 year warranty. That's good!

zotac is the best brand when it comes to good yet cheap GPUs. I had a zotac 1070 for 3 years and it was the best. although i feel they are skipping on extra features and quality with their RTX line of GPUs. still their prices are unmatched!

I'm thinking of going for the zotac one however it doesn't have the 0db mode like the gigabyte one. Does that make a very big difference? My current card has 0db mode.

It has no effect on performance. As the fans will kick in once temps reach a certain threshold on the GPU. However, if you don't wanna hear your card when you are light gaming then get the 0db mode.

my 1070 was 0db however my current 2080 is not. i personally miss the quietness BUT it does run far more cooler (27C vs 38C idle)

so i guess its personal preference. zotac GPUs are still very robust!
