MSI GTX 1070 GAMING X/Z Review - How GOOD is it??

2016-10-28
I recently shaved my head and people have been making fun of me in the comments some of them quite funny actually but this should make me feel sad lost but when I get home and I see her lying there I'm automatically lifted with joy for what she can do is completely fabulous welcome to tech city this is brian coming to you guys today with a review of the gtx 1070 gaming x from msi this time around they have included RGB LEDs on the side and even integrated one into the backplate definitely stepping up the game for cosmetics though it doesn't just stop with cosmetics this cooler is a heavy implementation with the card weighing in at roughly 1.1 kilograms the vrm is a 10 phase design with you bet QM three eight one six and six MOSFETs with the high side which is rated at 51 amps and the low side rated 117 amps integrated into one circuit forming what is known as the jewel and MOSFET design the Superferry chokes are rated at 60 amps and ms I've included solid state 8k caps on the board ok ok I get it let's hit those benchmarks as you can see from the benchmarks this card was very impressive out of the box sporting an overclock that hits over two gigahertz at all times without me even touching anything I also managed to get a little bit extra out of it in terms of over clocks especially on the memory which is also from Samsung by the way though the best thing about this card was it was just whisper quiet the whole way through benchmarking from stock settings to custom over clocks let's take a quick listen so looking over this gratis card there really is nothing to fault here except for one thing I'd like to see a dual BIOS if possible though it does have a really solid build quality it has the cosmetics it has the aloha ku Stix and it also features a PCB size that is extra wide with MSI implementing their own custom vrm moving over the front of the unit the red accents light up red too which would fit perfectly into a red and black theme build looking at the outputs you have three display ports one HDMI 2.0 and also a DVI out it has SLI support for up to three way and features two PCIe connections one a six pin and one and eight pin also power consumption was really good as well coming under that of the 980ti when overclocked and both out of the box settings as for the performance the gtx 1070 was beating the non ati out of the box though once the 980 TI overclocked it did edged it out in a lot of those games ultimately however this card is a card that hits all the boxes in my opinion and the included software is actually usable allowing you to control the led colors and mix it with other products like their motherboard you can also select the overclock mode and have grass being displayed in real time to monitor temps and whatnot while gaming as for pricing you can currently pick this card up for around about 699 AUD or around 408 USD if you're in the u.s. from Amazon though honestly if you are an Australian you're probably better off just going to Amazon in the States and then just converting to a you do I think that way you'll save around one hundred and fifty dollars which is pretty huge they'll get great job from MSI and is a really solid card that I can recommend to pretty much anyone out there anyway that's about it for me today if you like these videos and be sure to hit that like button if you have any questions or comments about the gtx 1070 Gaming acts and be sure to drop a comment in the comment section below and I'll get back to you as soon as I can also let me know do you have a gtx 1070 at the moment if so what model if not let me know would you want one if so why and if not why not we'd love to hear your comments as usual and I'll catch you guys in another tech video very soon peace out for now bye
