Not sure if I did the right thing or not ordering the Asus Dual RX 9060 XT 16 GB.

Build Help

I had to choose between this and the Gigabyte RX 9060 XT GAMING OC 16 GB because these 2 models were the cheapest options. I ordered Asus instead thanks to the ball bearing fans, I wanted them to last as long as possible, more than 5 years, I know most GPUs use sleeve bearing fans but still.

I've seen a lot of people complain about the thermal gel gigabyte uses, I did not know if that problem was fixed or not but I did not want to risk because I did not want to rely on warrancy for a thermal paste replacement. Not sure if the high hot spot temps are related to this or they re from a different cause.

I know that I should've made this post before ordering, sorry about that, it s a tradition here. I had 10 minutes to order before the end of the discount.

Should I return the Asus model and buy the Gigabyte one instead?
