Unless you really, really want a blower cooler (where the FE excels), we'd suggest waiting for the cheaper cards. Nvidia has confirmed a £399/$450 price for the Founder's Edition, while partner cards will hopefully come in at the target £330/$380. Connectors: 3x DisplayPort, 1x HDMI 2.0, 1x Dual-Link DVI.The end result? Titan X levels of performance. GTX 1070 uses the exact same processor core as the much more expensive GTX 1080, albeit with a number of cut-backs in effect. The GTX 1080's vapour chamber is replaced with a more conventional heat sink while the power delivery system also gets a minor downgrade. Physical downgrades are present though, albeit internally. Priced at £399/$450, the added price-premium over the baseline suggested retail cost still manages to rankle, but there's no denying that it's a quality product - you get the same premium finish as the GTX 1080, the same physical shell, and the same connectors (3x DisplayPort, HDMI 2.0 and dual-link DVI). We're reviewing the Founders Edition product here, which is essentially Nvidia's reference design. The GTX 1070 does exactly what Nvidia said it would do, bringing last-gen flagship performance down to a much more acceptable price-point: the frame-rates delivered by a £520/$650 GPU are now achievable with a £330/$380 card instead. On balance, they were the best in their class, but everyone can agree that they weren't exactly cheap. Titan X - and indeed the extremely similar GTX 980 Ti - were remarkably good products. What's for certain is that Nvidia has absolutely delivered everything it set out to achieve with GTX 1070. Pairing your graphics card with one of the best gaming monitors is also important, so check out our latest picks! Thinking about upgrading your gaming PC? Take a look at our recommendations for the best graphics cards on the market. This is not to suggest that GTX 1070 doesn't offer a good deal (far from it!) but the price increase is one factor that highlights that as spectacular as the new product is, it's not quite the seismic release that the GTX 970 was back in the day. We picked up a GTX 970 for £250 back in the day, and it had a $330 US ticket price - Nvidia's latest has a baseline £330/$380 price-point.

Just like the GTX 1080 before it, prices are hiked in comparison to the 900 series equivalents.
Our original In Theory piece was all about the idea of the new Pascal architecture handing in Titan X performance for GTX 970 money - and in that respect, the GTX 1070 doesn't quite deliver.
It's actually a touch faster, and a whole lot cheaper.īut there's an important caveat here. The bottom line is that GTX 1070 isn't just on par with Titan X. But the GTX 1080's comprehensive takedown of Nvidia's previous GPU flagship was so overwhelming that what many thought was fanciful thinking is now a cold, hard reality. Just six weeks ago, the notion that Nvidia's GTX 970 replacement could offer Titan X-level performance seemed like a product of wishful thinking.
