So having decided even though it may be a touch of overkill for the time being (given I game at 1080p) I'm going to get a 1070GTX as I plan to switch to 1440p in about 6 months. I noticed this card seems to be at a very reasonable price:

Is the basic Jetstream. Is it worth the extra £10 to get the Gamerock or Super, or will they all boost the same anyway (gpu lottery dependant of course) and do they all have same coolers/running temps/noise levels?

Cheers people.
 
Normally, for the sake of a few mhz increase I'd overclock the card myself, but seeing as there appears to be quite a difference between them in core speeds, I'd say it's worth a few extra quid to be sure. It's only a tenner after all. :)

Got to be the super, highest stock/boost clocks of them all:

I don't think it's been confirmed anywhere that the supers are binned higher? But for £10 I would go for it anyway. If you're happy with the 2 year warranty and RMAs handled in Hong Kong then these are cracking cards for the money. One of the best coolers and cheaper than the rest :)
 
I tend to buy overclocked cards and run them at stock so I'd pay the tenner for the SuperJet, The Gamerock Premium has the fastest clocks but it's not worth the extra 20 pounds over the SuperJet.

How is the RMA handled? Would I return to Overclockers and they deal with it, or is it a case of me having to send to HK myself.

I recently had to RMA a dead Palit 980Ti SuperJetstream and I had to send it to the place of purchase before they sent it back to Palit in Hong Kong. Took 4 weeks for them to refund me :)
 
I have the Super Jetstream and its brilliant, boosts to 2053 at stock and is silent, i havent seen it go above 55c on a 1/1 fan curve in afterburner. Left to its own devices on its stock fan profile its only reached 65c in Heaven and i still cant hear it.
