I heard that there are 2 types of the 2070 GPUs :
TU106-400-A1
TU106-400A-A1. (Binned - supposed to run faster and hold its boost clock for a longer period and cost more)
----------------------------------------
I don't understand where these 2 different types of GPUs go to which board partners?

The above ASUS ROG RTX 2070 uses the A reference :

Hello Hilbert,
would you be so kind and answer few questions regarding Vray peformance?
- do you run Vray Benchmark for every tested version of RTX 2070, or are results copied from reference model?
- have you been in contact with Chaosgroup to clarify wierd results (2070 faster than 2080)?
- based on your knowledge do you think its glitch/bug, wich will be patched in newer versions of Vray Benchmark?
Thank you for reply and your great work!
Cheers, Josef

The above ASUS ROG RTX 2070 uses the A reference :

From what I did read they are exactly same GPU design manufactured on exactly same wafers. It is just pre-binned by nVidia.

More 70 euros and I bought a 2080 (by chance it was what cost my Duke2080) ... It does not make sense to buy ASUS strix for another 1% on benckmarck and pay 200 euros more.
