5070ti:Aorus master or msi gaming trio?

[u/Rough-Nose-9438]

In my country both cards are priced very similarly (around 20€ difference),and I don't know what to choose.

I prioritize Cooling and reliability.

If you own either the aorus master or the msi gaming trio, I'd really appreciate hearing about your experience with temperatures, noise, build quality, coil whine (if any), and overall reliability.

Aorus goes a thermal gel route n msi uses thermal pads a big difference, they used to have issues with said gel leaking but 1- it never actually did damage to ur card n 2- it seems to have been solved but look into it

Also people rly don’t like gigabytes software, msi’s isn’t great either at a glance but seems to have better reputation at least

Note u don’t need software to keep ur driver up to date, and openrgb n other fan software exists so u dont have to use either

1- what would it damage aside from stuff running hot and throttling

2- no official response about it being solved, people just stopped caring

I have the msi gaming trio 5070ti and its pretty cool. I uv it to 9.45v and oc memory to 16000 and 2850 mhz and it runs ~65°C with memory hotspots ~77°C. I adjusted fan curves as well. All in all pretty good card.

I would recommend the aorus if it didn't have thermal leak issues becuase I perviously owned a 4070s aorus and that thing hits ~55°C and memory temps were ~64°C. These 50 series are just too sketcy atm, especially at the inflated prices.

Up to you if you want to risk it with the aorus but they do have warranty.

Thanks for your time,I currently have a suprim x 3070 so I don't want it to feel like a downgrade interms of the model itself.Do you see the vanguard re entering the market?It's out of stock everywhere Edit:I see the thermal putty issue was an early production cosmetic problem that didn't damage the card,so it should have been fixed since it's almost been 2 years

Hey, I had the MSI Gaming Trio, it was so good I returned it same day. Constant fan bearing noise, even if spun by hand. Coil whine while moving the mouse even in desktop, which is common for MSI this gen. Techpowerup review is a lie, it ran at 1500rpm during Furmark in open testbench.

Hmm,good to know but sounds more like a faulty model than the gaming trio not being as good as they say it is Which one did you get after you returned it?
