Hi Guys! Need your humble advice on choosing which Graphic Card GTX 1070. Since there was no sale for EVGA Graphic car during BF, i have decided to get a gtx 1070 locally. I have shortlisted two choices which is the MSI GTX 1070 Gaming 8G and the Zotac GTX 1070 AMP Extreme! My concern for the Zotac GTX 1070 is the quality and the size as although my case is Cosmos SE, my Noctua DH15 took up a lot of space. Any advice on either graphic cards? Need your humble opinions here! Still learning in progress. Please pardon me if i ask some noob question.

I like the cooler on the MSI, which has better build quality. Zotac is generally cheaper than MSI.

I don't really see a need for the big cooler on the Amp Extreme. I'm using the Mini and temps are only just over 70C at 2GHz 80% fan speed.

should be able to fit your case and yes it will took at least another 50% of the space.

personally i am loving my palit super jetstream .. got it at 508 after all e discounts which is a good price... its been pretty quiet so far in all my gaming sessions, n has not given me any problems yet

can change e colours with e palit software too, so it does look quite nice if u have a clear side panel

Went from a Zotac GTX960 to EVGA GTX970 to Zotac GTX1070 with zero casualties.

Sometimes you are just that unlucky.
