dual fan card the pallet jetstream series with an extra thick and wide dual fan cooler now these b-plus coolers will run cooler temperatures than the founder's edition card but noise levels will probably be similar or slightly higher with the higher wattage cards right under these we have the b-class coolers these include the narrow dual slot triple fan cooler designs such as the evga xcNUMBER_TOKEN series gigabyte eagle series and msi ventus NUMBER_TOKENx series so this will be ideal for small form factor cases that can't take super thick triple slot cards here we can also see the asus koc asus dual series and pny uprising with triple slot dual fan coolers the b-class coolers will probably be only slightly cooler and quieter than the founders edition and there are no high wattage cards in this class lastly we have the c-class coolers which should perform identically to the founder's edition card which isn't horrible or unusable but just kind of mediocre they're not anything special or great either they will be on cards like the zotac NUMBER_TOKEN edge series and msi ventus NUMBER_TOKENx series which will have the lowest msrps so now it's time to rank the cards since there are too many cards and many are similar i will put them into tiers this time around to make it easier to understand and give options if you can't find a model in stock but want something similar in performance and quality keep in mind i evaluate this based on all the metrics so if they fall short on one they will go down a tier and if they excel in one it helps bring it up a tier as well so starting with an honorable mention in first place i'll put the asus tricks on top for being the no cornerscut overkill design it has the biggest cooler meant for the rtx NUMBER_TOKEN and NUMBER_TOKEN and the highest power limits both default and maxed out complementing its strongest vrm current capability then i would put the palette gamerock oc evga fcwNUMBER_TOKEN msi supreme x and gigabyte aerosmaster in the highest class of cards as well you can't go wrong with either of them if you demand maximum performance and great overclocking from a high power limit then for the high performance and basically as good as it gets without going overkill and expensive options i would pick the asus tough gaming oc pellet game rock gigabyte gaming oc gigabyte vision oc and pallet jetstream oc for the still high performance but not quite the best ones i would recommend the msi gamingx trio only if you really don't care about overclocking it personally i wouldn't get any msi card just because you're paying more for a worse vrm which just doesn't sit well with me even though it might not affect the performance directly colorful advanced oc maxon icraft oc pellet jet stream pellet gaming pro oc and asus koc then these are the cheaper but still high performance options that should cost less than a previous tier but will have absolutely no problems performing just as well and better than the founder's edition still there's the colorful ultra ocv galax gamer oc inno
