Zotac GTX 1070 AMP! Edition vs EVGA GTX 1070 FTW

[joaofsa2000pt]

so the zotac one is 489€ and the evga one is 525€. is it worth paying the extra for the evga or not? also i heard the gainward phoenix Golden Sample is good so do you recommend that card too?

The AMP! Is basically a Founders Edition with an aftermarket cooler, I'm not sure why reference/FE cards are getting so much hate besides the dodgy pricing, but just so you know what you're getting. Both of the other cards you mentioned are fully custom.

It completely depends if you're willing to splash out the extra for extra overclocking potential, bearing in mind that I haven't heard of a GTX 1070 that hasn't boosted to 1800MHz+ or/and overclocked close to 2000MHz or beyond including the FE/reference cards.
