@monkeyman22xx: It Nvidias Reference Cards, they just changed the name to Founders Edition. Nvidia reference cards are exactly how they sound, their made with Nvidia stock parts that the recommend.
Other companies might use cheaper stuff, but thats on them. Asus makes very nice cards though, unlike other companies who use cheaper parts.
@ProjectPat187: Its just a stock reference card. Its not all that special, except it comes from Nvidia and wont compete with third party who they also sell their card to.
So, to not make say ASUS GTX 1060 mad, they let ASUS sell stock card for $600, Nvidia Founders $700, Asus GTX 1060ti $700, if that makes sense.
