Hey was just after some insight into what GTX 1070 I should upgrade to.

 

Currently I have GTX 670 in SLI and looking to upgrade to a GTX 1070. Will I see a noticeable performance gain? 

 

Also I don't know which GTX 1070 to purchase, I can purchase an EVGA SC from overseas which would be about $100 cheaper then the cards I am looking at, at my local store. The cards being;

MSI Gaming X

Gigabyte G1

Asus STRIX Gaming

 

I'm not fussed with LEDs or the look of the card really, more so noise/heat. Out of those three listed what card is the better option?

Yeah it seems better compared to previous SLI, how much the fancy HB Bridge does I have no clue.

If you really don't care about the card aesthetic grab a Palit Jetstream/Gamerock or MSI Armor instead.  =x
