the famous question GTX 1070

[eightregent0]

What GTX 1070 do you recommend to me and why?

i am currently running:
fx8300 oc at 4.4Ghz (can stabilize at 4.5-6 if need be, but like my thermals at 4.4 better)
16gb ram

currently have a RX470 and not too impressed by it. i want a 1070 because in a year or so i am going to be upgrading the rest of my pc and just want better graphics at 1080p for now. will be upgrading to 1440 or 4k later.

Aorus 1070 because of the quality of the cooler. I have a 1080ti Aorus and it's pretty great. And thus you'll get good performance and cold temperatures.

None they are pretty much all insanely priced right now.

If for some reason they aren't for you, I prefer any EVGA card with the ICX cooler. Due to VRM quality, temp sensors on everything, thermal pads that touch the main heatsink on everything that produces heat, excellent cooler, and excellent customer service and warranty. My runner up would probably be the the ASUS ROG card or the Galax EXOC or HOF but the HOF is usually pricey.

Any of them, there is no noticeable difference between the models other than maybe warranty and aesthetics. Unfortunately because of the continuing bit mining, pricing on them is terrible. You might as well just spend a bit more and buy a 1080 instead. Especially if you think you'll be doing 4k eventually.

Might as well buy a GTX 1080 the price difference from a 1070 isn't that much compared to the performance gain. A 1080 will handle 1440p no problem and be decent at 4k.
