PC Building Question

Clueless_2000

I plan to go to a local Micro Center to help choose parts for them to build a PC. However, given the difficulty of finding the right video card I plan to reserve it online and buy it first and then go in. That should be the hardest part to get, correct?

With that in mind, will the name in front of the video card (same brand, same model, not overclocked) make a big difference in my build? For example, I see the following names listed for RTX 3090 (although I am looking for a 3080): ASUS NVIDIA GeForce, EVGA GeForce, ASUS GeForce, MSI GeForce, Gigabyte Geforce, PNY GeForce, etc.

Thanks in advance.

Greetings. Not really, the difference in brand of graphics card will mainly be the design/look of the card itself, number of fans, ports available. The big difference is in graphics card series overall such as 3070s, 3080s, 3090s in general, not the brand.
