The ROG Strix 1070 comes with a single 8-pin power connector, and what I want to know is how that affects it's overcloking performance. For example, how would the overclockability of this card compare to one with an 8-pin and a 6-pin?

On the stock cooler, not too much. Pascal doesn't require much power to run, and most cards should hit 2Ghz.

Pascal seems to have a wall at around 2000~2100mhz, an extra 6-pin doesn't really help much. The 225w (even more if you consider what the 8pin cable can deliver) is enough.
