Hi, there are two main suppliers of GPU (processors), NVidia (GTX), and AMD (R7,R9,RX,etc). They
LIcense these out to the various brands you find out at retail. These brands usually have the ability
to modify the original reference model that was introduced. Thus, they tweak the units, including adding
fans, heatpipes, ets to improve cooling, along with other things.
Adding these things like fans increase the size of the card.

Here's a comparison:

You can see the giant AMP Extreme with three fans has higher base and boost clock. The bigger boards have more room for power delivery and cooling, thereby achieving higher clock (and maybe ram) speeds.
The mini is a bit faster than a founders tho.
