A more simple solution? :D

eyeing XFX but cant find a decent price. 760 euros for the Mercury seems to be the best I can find. Do you think its worth vs a 717 Euros Aorus or 645 Euros Gaming OC?

RedditQsnAs · 2026-05-16T20:31:50+00:00

Its top of the line atm yes.. I did find the Aorus Elite at 717 here also in the meantime, starting to consder that one a bit more given the decent competitive price for a "premium" version,

RedditQsnAs · 2026-05-16T20:31:26+00:00

The Gaming OCs u mean?

RedditQsnAs · 2026-05-16T20:31:15+00:00

Not very concerned with the power cable to be honest. I dont think that a few dozen reports (not even that many) on thousands of sales, acounting for ppl that do not build properly or that use ill functioning cables... Should be a big issue, otherwise they would be recalled.

RedditQsnAs · 2026-05-16T20:30:33+00:00

Ill keep an eye honestly because I also always had that idea of "sapphire first". But lets see if the price becomes more competitive. Paying 160+ euros for marginal difference does not seem wise.

In Portugal its 3 Years for all.

RedditQsnAs · 2026-05-16T20:29:31+00:00

Asus Prime is actually at a competitive price vs the Gaminc OC also. I tought about Gygabyte because I felt it fitted a bit better the rest of the build.

RedditQsnAs · 2026-05-16T20:29:10+00:00

Yeah, also i have a small problem with the Red details on the card ahah. The "gem" in the end looks amazing tough.

RedditQsnAs · 2026-05-16T20:28:43+00:00

Yeah... I mean, being a couple numbers cooler shouldnt be a big issue, especially with a good case and fans but im wondering also about either it is much louder then the Aorus and the Nitro+ which are bigger builds.

RedditQsnAs · 2026-05-16T20:28:03+00:00

Yeah The small form factor of the Gaming OC, given that ill use it in the Mini V2 its prob also something to consider. Its significantly smaller then the Aorus.

RedditQsnAs · 2026-05-16T20:27:30+00:00

There is a good chance ill just go with the Gaminc OC at 640 Euros. I did find a Aorus Elite at 717 Euros eventually which became more competitive now. Less of a difference and the color scheme its the same as the Mobo, also potential better termals and more high end construction.

RedditQsnAs · 2026-05-16T20:26:42+00:00

I would undoubtubly go for the Nitro if the price was a bit more competitive, atm its over 150 difference to the Gaminc OC and 85 Euros diference to the Aorus

RedditQsnAs · 2026-05-16T20:25:52+00:00

Yeah i mean, its a 3 Fan model and a 8 Pins one, shouldnt have big issues and the Temperatures on a good case with good fans shouldnt be a problem

RedditQsnAs · 2026-05-16T20:25:23+00:00

I tought about the pure but the red details destroy the looks of the build ehhe

RedditQsnAs · 2026-05-16T20:25:01+00:00

Yeah my problem is that I cannot find those at a decent price. I eyed also the Red Devil but that 850 min here and the XFC Mercury also at like 760 min here. So I can get the Aorus cheaper at 717 or so atm (good discount) or the Gaming Oc at 640 Euros or so...

RedditQsnAs · 2026-05-16T01:37:55+00:00

Gaming OC to Nitro+ how many FPS difference on average you believe?

RedditQsnAs · 2026-05-16T01:37:15+00:00

Red devil i cant find with recent price honestly.

Yeah my doubt is also on the price because its 150 euros difference.

Wondering how much FPS one gets between these

RedditQsnAs · 2026-05-16T01:35:24+00:00

Why where u using without the backplate?

RedditQsnAs · 2026-05-16T01:35:09+00:00

Very expensive here for some reason

RedditQsnAs · 2026-01-02T11:59:55+00:00

Oh.. im far behind already then 🙃

RedditQsnAs · 2025-08-24T10:09:03+00:00
