the Hellhound being a slightly more premium model that offers factory overclocking and a more robust cooler. The Reaper is a more budget-friendly, 2-slot card with a simpler design that is closer to the MSRP and has a smaller form factor. Both are based on the same AMD GPU but differ in clock speeds, cooling design, and price.

Unless the hellhound has an extra power connector, there's really no extra OC headroom.
Link seems broken btw.

That extra $10 gets you a better cooler & dual bios which will help prevent you from bricking the thing when playing around flashing some XT bios versions.
I am pretty sure the resale value will be at least $10 higher than the Reaper down the road.
All Powercolor 9070 XT and non-XT cards appear to use Honeywell PTM7950.
The 9070 on the other hand is heavily power limited which is why it ocs so well similar to the Blackwell cards although it doesn't have the same memory headroom.
While the 9070 xt will always be better, when both are oced the 9070 is much closer.
A flashed 9070 can get around a 20 percent boost in synthetics which translates to around 10 or so percent boost in games.
The 9070 xt only gets around 10-15 percent in synthetics which translates even worse in synthetics around 5 percent. There is only so much perf you can get from pushing clock speeds and the 9070 xt can already hit 3100+ out of the box.
