Gold GTX 1070 FE

So this isn't a question but i thought id share this, I plan on building a desk pc in the near future and i want the theme to be gold and black. I havent seen anyone paint the 10 series cards (not saying anyone hasnt) and i took on doing it, I have 2 1070s and the nvidia sli bridge and painted all the silver bits and I think they turned out amazing, though the top card picture got dirt on it while it was drying underneath  the heatsink window, the 2nd card i got didnt have the FE backplate on them so i made acrylic backplates for both, tell me what you think. All this took was spray paint and super glue.

That's looking cool looking and powerful hardware forward to your finished build. By the ways what's the performance level of 2 1070s in SLI optimised titles ?

Amazing job. Congrats, they look beautiful.

The job is outstanding, but I can't stand the green accents.

Honestly its not much of a noticeable improvement as you know sli isnt much like it used to be, i was able to pick a 2nd one up for $180 so its almost like a derivative piece, if you were thinking about running sli with 1070s im not to sure to recommend doing so, from what i found it has about a 10% improvement of that of a single 1080ti.
