Palit Super Jetstream NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 GDDR5 Graphics Card - Black

This card is awesome.I have had two of these (in separate builds) for about a year now and they are still going strong. I have had zero issue and they have performed beyond my expectations.Even under maximum load the heatsink and fans do a brilliant job of cooling the card and remains quieter than my case fans.* Supper quiet* Metal backplate* Customisable RGB top plate* Boost Clock produces very good resultsThe only negative thing to be aware of is this card is BIG. The massive cooler makes it a 2.5 slot card but it still fits in any reasonable sized case, it fits in my Fractal R4 with no issues.

Fantastic card! Cannot fault it, runs cool and silent when below a threshold. Its certainly improved every game I've played. One thing to note, this is a BIG graphic card and whilst it just about fitted into the case i noticed my cooling air flow was blocked resulting in my CPU over heating. Just make sure that doesn't cause any issues...if you're air cooled.

Straight to the point:+Excellent Cooling+Excellent Acoustics+Excellent PerformanceFurmark15min 1080p Burn-in test: temp. didn't exceed 71°C with fan speed topping out at 42% with noise levels most people would likely consider silent.On the topic of silent, the card features 0dB tech. meaning the fans by default do not spin until the GPU exceeds 60°C which shouldn't occur during browsing or multimedia usage. In fact, the fans didn't move during several games of CSGO with FPS capped at 300 resulting in silent gaming bliss as long as the rest of your components can keep up (or is it down?) with the acoustic performance.Speaking of performance; despite the base and boost clock being factory overclocked to 1632Mhz and 1835MHz respectively, the card consistently ran at 1967MHz even during long sessions of The Witcher 3 straight out of the box. A testament to the great cooling and temps.As you might have realised by now, I am thoroughly impressed with this card! It may not be the flashiest, but I am a big fan of the understated look. I highly recommend this card to anyone looking for quiet and performance.Do make sure to check the dimensions as it as a pretty hench card that will occupy the best of three slots (see the picture below).(For reference: I am running the card in a Fractal Define R5 case with three 140mm fans and a Scythe Fuma CPU cooler on a Xeon 1231v3)

Runs every game on ultra settings you wont hear any fan noise as its super silent. Led is good but wish there we more options however you can still use the nvidia led visualizer to add more effects.Only real issue is the size trust me its huge :)Great card.

Quiet, cold and happy with that.

Part One:Please read this part if you have a good to excellent knowledge of computers and the gaming aspect of them. If not read Part Two.So I bought this card a day ago from writing this review but that is not to say that I haven't put it through it's paces and done some bench marking and graphics tests with it. I must say for a card that is so large and a cooling system that matches that it is by far the most quite card I have ever owned (3 to be exact) throughout my time playing computer games. (around 6 years) So this on my system which admittedly isn't great but thanks to this card I can now play every single game I own on max graphics at a very comfortable 60fps and above. Also little disclaimer I only have an i5 4690k 3.50GHz and 16GB DDR3 1887MHz RAM. But saying which let the benchmarks below be the deciding factor.Benchmarks: 1080pGTA V 60-110 FPS Max Graphics Very High-UltraAssassins Credd Unity 60-80 FPS Max Graphics Very High-UltraStar Citizen 60-70 Very High Graphics PresetThe Crew 70-150 Max Graphics PresetBlack Ops 3 70-130 Max Graphics PresetArma 3 (On a medium populated server) 60-70 Very High on all the settings.So as you can see from above not too shabby at all. If I could change on thing it would be my CPU the card does absolutely everything I need it to and has completely blown my expectations out of the water with everything I have tried with it. I will say this though to those of you playing PC. If you're going to get this card JUST DO IT because it is the cheapest I have found it on here (Amazon) also if you're going to get this card personally I'd recommend getting a 4K monitor at the same time just simply because as you can see above it completely smashed 1080p without fail. Anyway that's enough of that.Part Two:So this part is just for the general consumer looking to jump into the gaming area maybe and wants to start off with something that will earn them a reputation so to speak. So I presume you have read all above which means that I don't need to repeat myself. So in terms of price unless you have a large salary/income this card will take a bite out of your bank account like it did mine. But for all that it's worth you sat here reading this review written by someone on a computer looking at a screen I will say this. This card is worth every single penny you spend on it without a word of dishonesty in my voice. For the average consumer you may be wondering about how big this card is and it is hefty you wouldn't fit this in a narrow LAN case is all I'll say my case is the Phanteks Enthoo Luxe and lets say the fit leave me with about an inch and a half of space between the edge of the card and the perspex window showing it off. I will include a photo of it and the box so you can see it from my point of view.The features:Now for new buyers I'd say from experience I look for the features so as well as what Amazon tell you are the features I will tell you about others.-Comes with completely colour customizable LED logo on the said that can be in rainbow mode or static colour or display a colour relative to how hot the card is getting.-Massive heat sink and brilliant fans, these fans actually rarely spin due to how efficient the cooling of the card is it will only ever spin when it is getting too hot or if you adjust the target temp so that it never goes over that otherwise it stays motionless and uses your cases cooling which I found amazing.-Clean and clever design, The card out of the box looks really amazing with the silver and it also has a very nice backplate the means you dont have to look at any ugly piece of board.-Ports, One DVI port 3 Display Ports and one HDMI. I'll say this make sure to order display port cables to HDMI because they're very useful with this card.And that concludes my features list. I just listed off the ones I found most important.So to conclude this card is the best performance and cooling card you can buy for this money bracket new. It by far beats all the other 1070s that I've looked at and does in some cases beat the 1080. Which by the way are overkill and I think a bit too expensive but it's your money not mine I made my choice. So that concludes my short but sweet review.Hope this helped you.

When first taking the GPU out the box and peeling of the plastic, there was a considerable amount of scratches on the front metal panels which was hugely disappointing seeing as it cost about £400...Otherwise the card works fine.

Incredible card. Same stock overclock (1860MHz out of the box) as the MSI Gaming Z version. Build quality excellent. Runs everything flawlessly at 1440p. Whisper quiet. The only game I have found it struggled with everything in Ultra, was Tomb Raider with Hairworks on.Cheaper than many other models and yet has all the features of other manufacturers. If you can't afford a 1080 then this is the card for you.It is a big card and needs at least 2 slots. Even with my large Antec case, the card comes right up to my first SATA connector for my SSD. Just fits and rests against the connector, but it does just fit, so no problem. Any bigger and I would have had to sacrifice a SATA connector (on my mobo). It's heavy too - and has a back plate to keep its rigidity. Solid build, solid performanace, great overclocker apparently, great value.
