So im thinking about buying myself the Asus geforce gtx 1070 dual oc, but im not sure if it will fit in my motherboard ASUS B150M Pro Gaming, Socket-1151..

Anyone knows?

And also should i just buy the Turbo version which is cheaper, or should i stick to the dual oc?

PCIex16 slots on motherboard and GPU motherboard connector comes in only one standard size. So any card can fit on your board. What you need to check is whether the card can fit the case, which is the length of the card.
The variant of the card doesnt matter as they all perform around the same range mostly, except for a few fps here and there. You can buy whichever you want.
Make sure your PSU is robust enough and has the right connectors to support the card.
it will fit the motherboard the case is the part that might start a fight with the card. that is a long card. verify the case has the space to fit it and that the power supply has enough wattage and the proper power connections and you are good. the motherboard has the proper slot, PCIe so no worries there.

Doublecheck the PSU and the CASE
the mobo is good
