$390 US & $390 USMSI GeForce RTX 2060 Gaming Z & Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2060 Gaming OC Pro Thermal Tests
No graphics card review is complete without evaluating its temperatures and thermal load. Both graphics cards that I tested are using advanced custom cooling solutions which come with silent and performance profiles. The cards were tested with the performance profile to see their full potential. The MSI Gaming Z variant comes with a dual-fan cooling system while the Gigabyte OC Pro comes with a triple fan cooling system. Both cards come with PWM cooling and an anti-bending plate that keeps the card sturdy and durable in the harshest environments inside your PC.
Note – We tested load with Kombuster which is known as a ‘power virus’ and can permanently damage hardware. Use such software at your own risk!
