I have a challenge for you guys

and ITS TO FIND THE CHEAPEST GTX 1070 ON THE MARKET!

 

ANY WEBSITE IS ACCEPTED!

Must Not GO OVER $500

The person to Find the Cheapest 1070 WIN!!

The TOTAL PRICE MUST BE WITH TAXES!

 

THATS IT!

 

 

why i made this challenge

 

i made this challenge cause people thought that the gtx 1070 was gonna be around the $379-400 budget

but all gtx 1070 are $440 and above which really sucks if you are looking to make a budget build.

so yea

 

WINNER WILL BE PICKED soon... aka (8-15 mins)

Not that it is a bad price, but the price will increase since it has 6 Days left of bidding.

Overpriced. Just buy a 980 Ti for 390$ and call it a day. Same performance, better price

That cooler is utter shit and you won't get an OC on it so less than a 980 Ti

If I may point out... The purpose of this competition is to find the CHEAPEST 1070. Not the one with the best performance/overclocking ability. 

 

You want a 980 Ti? Then go with your 980 Ti.

at this point it is cheaper to buy a used 980ti (since evryone is buying 1080s and 1070s) for cheap and have way better price per performance ratio
