Hey everyone! So i am currently pricing out a new gaming computer. I don't really have a "set" budget but i dont want to spend a stupid amount of money. Im stuck at what graphics card to purchased, i have my eyes on the ASUS Geforce Strix GTX 1070 overclocked 8GB. I originally was looking at the non-OC one but its about a 50$ difference but all the clock speeds are a significant difference with the OC version. Does anyone have any idea on this card? If im paying around 450$ for the 1070 OC should i just spend more money for a 1080 or is there not much of a point!!!

1070 will usually run you 1000~ish USD for a complete build. could be cheaper, depends on what else you get.

 

Would you like somebody to make a complete build, or just pick out a good card?

Personal build >  New-ish AMD main gaming setup           

   PLEASE QUOTE OR @ ME FOR A RESPONSE xD

You location and what are you gaming at? As in resolution, 1080p? Normally GTX 1070 would be enough for 1080p gaming, some even said 1440p. But if you are gaming at 4K then GTX 1080 would be strongly recommend. Are you ok with AMD? Usually they are cheaper than GTX (some what).

Don't get the OC version, you can OC to that level yourself with afterburner.
