MSI Gtx 1070 Gaming or Gaming X

Sgt.Mak

So the Gaming X is 80 USD more than the Gaming non X. 

Should I go with normal since I won't be gaming at 144hz nor playing more than 1080p 60fps.. however I will stream..

The games are h1z1, Bf1 and csgo which won't be a problem.

The gaming X is basically a bit higher binned and higher factory overclocked. If the Gaming X is 80$ more than the Gaming non X, then just buy a Gaming non X and overclock it manually if you have to.

There is no such thing as the MSI gaming non-x. MSI has the Aero, Armour, Gaming X and Gaming Z. Which one of these are you looking at?

dont go for the gaming x the cooler is identical and should overclock just fine adn you can save 80 bucks. not worth paying that much more for a higher out of the box speed.
