    I think this might work, but make sure by contacting ekwb support before buying to make sure

    Get the GTX 1080.
    Palit Superjetstream is (along with Palit Gamerock, and Gainward Phoenix models. They are all the exact same Cooler) the absolute BEST GTX 1080 there is. In terms of pure Cooling Performance.
     
    So that makes your choice even easier. You will Not find a quiter GTX 1080 than you hav e listed there. Get the GTX 1080 super Jetstream.
    BotH GTX 1070 (altho, they are fine, and the MSI is one of the best 1070s), a Failbuy for that price.
    GTX 1080 is 25% faster. For maybe <10% higher price there.
     
    Edit: That Exoc is fine too.
     
    Don't forget: The WORST GTX 1080 is still better, than the BEST super hardcore OCed GTX 1070.
    A GTX 1080, that runs at max-Undervolt (0.8 Volt instead of 1.05 Volt, and only 1750-1800 Mhz, with a +500 Memory OC) only consumes 140w~, and is still faster than a 2100 Mhz GTX 1070, that breaks 200w.
    And while the undervolted GTX 1080 produces SO much less heat, it will be very quiet and cool
     
    A good compromise: 0.9 volt with 1950-2000 Mhz~. Nice OC, low Voltage, good temperature / Noise / power consumption values.

    no contest the 1080 should be you best choice
     
    i do know the fact the Palit is a reference board with a custom cooler but it should have better cooling when OCed

    If you really want a 1070, get the palit, if you don't want the palit 1070, get the palit 1080

    1080 seems like obvious choise if you ask me.
    At least I would pay those 40$ more and get 1080 that is around 25% faster.

    all 1080s perform within a few percentage points performance wise to each other unless you get a serious lottery win or loss

    Mkdd18 got a reaction from NinJake in How to make both Headset and Speakers work at the same time.   
    Lol. Well the reason behind why i wanted to have the speakers working together with the headset is that i dont want my room to be too quiet when i am talking to someone on discord.
