Which GTX 1070?

[PowerPie5000]

OK I'm thinking about getting a GTX 1070 as I really can't justify forking out the current asking price for a 1080 (it's getting ridiculous considering how cheaper they were around launch).

I'm gaming at 1440p, 144Hz with G-Sync and not looking to spend a fortune on a GTX 1070... Around £400 or so. I'd like it to be relatively quiet too! I'm not a fan of loud cards (sorry ). I'm looking at the KFA2 EXOC, Inno3D iChill Air Boss X3, Zotac AMP! and the Palit Super Jetstream.... Does anyone have any input on these models regarding noise and temps?

Cheers

Subscribed because I'm in the same boat for requirements. I would have thought the one that gives the most warranty?

Super jetstream is very very quiet and my temps never go above 71 deg at full load. Obviously the temps will depend on your case type and case fans.

Palit only offer 2 years and Zotac seems the best with 5 years... But honestly I don't think I've ever had a GPU for longer than 2 years.

I'm guessing the Jetstream and Gamerock versions are pretty similar apart from the colour and the dodgy Guitar Hero looking font on the Gamerock backplate!?

My case is the NZXT S340 with a pair of 140mm static pressure intake fans at the front along with a rear 120mm exhaust and top 120mm exhaust.... Airflow is fairly decent .

I also think that a 5 year warranty is a bit of a sales gimmick as the majority of people only keep a graphics card for 2 to 3 years.

I believe that the super jetstream can be flashed with the gamerock premium bios to get the higher clock speeds without having the dodgy looking guitar hero font to look at.
