ACER 1070 Desktop Prebuilt with after market GPU Cooler??

[littletinscott]

I have a prebuilt Acer Predator from Costco. It's a great machine for the price. I got it for 1000.00! I want to add a GPU cooler because it doesn't have enough room but the 1070 is unmarked. It looks like the new Vega blower style cards. My question is how would I know if an after market cooler would fit? Are all coolers pretty generic when it comes to fitment?

Don't know what card is in there, specifically.... but chances are good it's a base reference design.

Looks something like this?

If so, yes. That's the reference design, so PCB's are identical between vendors & any "generic" cooler that fits a "1070" will fit that card...... assuming you have sufficient room for it in the case (as some aftermarket coolers are bulky vs a reference blower design)
