Which GTX 1070?

The cheapest non blower style 1070 you can find.

Either the Zotac Extreme or the Palit Super Jetstream. Try and avoid any card with micron memory. MSI have confirmed that they have quality issues with their Gaming X so I wouldn't touch one those if I was you.

How are you supposed to avoid micron memory when buying though? It seems pretty much all 1070s manufacturers have switched to it in the last month or so from what I've read.

Taken from the 1070 owners thread. If you can find out then pick one that does not use Micron memory as they don't overclock very well. You may not care about overclocking now but in future you may (probably won't impact resale value but it's a negative).

My EVGA 1070 FTW edition runs incredibly cool but can't overclock for anything worthy.

i'd buy the zotac amp! (non extreme) - the bios is the limiting factor on non-blower models for overclocking, the all aftermarket coolers do well in a well ventilated case.

I'm fancying the Asus Stryx purely for the RGB and it fits with any colour scheme.

AFAIK all the non blower perform so close to each other you won't notice the difference and the Stryx is about £70 more atm though.

The Zotac has dropped a lot since I've been looking.

You'll get hit with the Asus tax
