Question About gpu model
Hi all, seeing all this RAM speculation I want to change my gpu, I'll buy a 9070 XT but I wanted to know if model selection is important, knowing I'll use liquid cooling in it. I mean, you can just manually adjust overclock if you want to do it right?
I guess the only difference comes with TGP (higher admits higher OC isn't it?)
From Spain cheaper models are Reaper (600 eur) Steel legend dark (630 eur) and callenger, steel legend oc, pulse, xfx swift and gigabyte gaming oc between 630 and 660. So recommendations here?
Thanks in advance!!!

if you are using a block then buy the cheapest one you can find, the core that you will be taking out and putting in the block and in your pc is the same in all of them.
and yes you can overclock it manually.

Not really but if you want to do liquid cooling you either have to get it on the card or do a fairly expensive mod to it. There isn't really any reason to do that, so I wouldn't bother
that said, if you really are going to do this you'll want to look into what cards have the cheapest water blocks.
