I was considering getting myself an Intel Arc Pro B70 for some local LLM excperimentation. During my search I came across these two variants, normally I would expect the OEM versions are off by a little from the reference cards, but with some obvious differences like clock speed.

Is it because of the blower design? Does that make it unsuitable for a regular tower case. I have Fractal Design Meshify C Mini (it’s an mATX case).
