There are 1080's for the price of what 1070's lately... but any ways I think the best priced one is the EVGA superclocked GTX 1070 black edition, it has price drop in many countries recently and it's not a bad card.

Where are you from?

if we are talking about performance it would be the msi gaming x the asus strix or the zotac amp extreme. i also heard the gigbyte g1 gaming is really good also. if i were to get on i would probably get the asus strix if you can fit it in your case. that msi gaming x is a good option if you cant have a long 3 fan card

25% more expensive for 25% more performance...it's not bad but it's not the deal of the century...the 1070 version of this card is 379$

1080 is 25% faster...but also 25% more expensive...it's up to you...

XLR8 GTX 1070 is the way too go...it's A LOT of GPU for just 1080p...will last a long time man.

I know but considering the prices these were not so long ago it can't not feel attempting regardless, besides we're just giving OP suggestions any ways... for a solely price view the 1070 is interesting I know, it could depend on OP CPU if its like i5 go the -70 if it's an i7 go -80 simple.

I appreciate the help! I'll be settling on the PNY 1070 for 380
