No. MSRP is manufacturer's suggested RETAIL price.

Pleas by all means tell me what NVidia is charging their board partners, because I can't find it listed anywhere.

 

As I said though, it's going to be quite a while before we see any of the cards meeting that price or going below it unless someone suddenly releases a card that can match or beat it's performance for less money.

I think that since Asus is changing their color scheme from red and black to orange and black, so gigabyte is trying to follow the trend.

Just like iphone comes out then a lot of other companies are trying to copy their design.

I don't like the orange that gigabyte use either. 

Gigabyte has been doing orange and black for a while

I think GB has been doing every color scheme for a while

red and black

green and black

orange and black

Thats that. If you need to get in touch chances are you can find someone that knows me that can get in touch.

I don't see a point to getting a more expensive 1070 since all of them overclock to the same frequency, give or take 50MHz

We have a NEW and GLORIOUSER-ER-ER PSU Tier List Now. (dammit @LukeSavenije stop coming up with new ones)

You can check out the old one that gave joy to so many across the land here

I really like their gaming z170 motherboard's colour scheme.

Red and White and a little bit of black.

 

If they can build their GPU around that, I think it is gonna sale really well.

 

Edit: Oh yeah, I remembered, their OC motherboards are colored in a orange and  black theme. I think you are right.

 

If it is not broken, let's fix till it is.

I'm still kinda made at Gigabyte for making one hell of an ugly card... Both this and the G1 gaming... even if I dont mind the cooler itself and that tiny orange part, the backplate is ugly af, making it and the FE one the only available 1070 and 1080 in my country and everything else keep flying off the shell LOL.

I prefer Gigabyte's red and white theme.

Not a big fan of Asus's new red and grey color theme they put on the latest ROG mobos...

Well it's still better than asus' black and golden shower colored motherboards D:

Ugliest boards ever made in the last few years, and thanks to some RMA stuff going wrong, i ended up with one...

It's awful! The red/gray/white/orange themes look a lot better than what i have tbh.

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

I am not good at photoshop or any other type of image editing software..

But I am a bit OCD about that top left corner is missing.

So,,,,,,

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

Now it looks like someone seriously underestimated the size of fans needed.
