Hello. I oredered GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Gaming OC , 20.09 september, but date shipping is unknown , and getting emails from shop about next delay . Also version GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Windforce OC is ready to buy actually and i can have it just tommoro . So my question take Windforce OC or wait for Gaming longer ( maybe ) ? Any differences between that 2 models? And Windforce is 200zł cheaper.
I'll suggest taking gaming, Gigabyte published a BIOS update with way higher power target. The Windforce owner will not have bios update...
Gaming OC has also a bigger heatsink + new Bios Update with bigger Power Target as mentioned by XenthorX.
The Windforce cards are absolutely huge, louder than the competitors (but not obnoxiously loud like a stock leaf blower), and don't provide actual improved cooling versus something like MSI's Gaming X series. If there is an MSI Gaming X version of the 2080 Ti that's the one I would recommend. The one I would least recommend is any of them from Gigabyte. They've been known to regularly do the ol' bait & switch. Later "revisions" (the ones actually in stores and not review samples or first batch samples) are often crap in comparison to what was advertised. Like the GTX 970 I bought, all past the first revision had inferior RAM which would clock 1GHz lower than those in reviews. Or worse, on motherboards they removed power phases. I used to buy motherboards almost exclusively from them before they went to crap. I'm not buying from them ever again.
