What should i buy? MSI 1070 Ti Aero 8G vs MSI 1070 Ti Gaming 8G

jeanic

The price difference where i'm going to buy the card it's HUGE.

 

The Aero it's for 470 Eur and the Gaming it's for 515 Eur.

 

It's worth it to buy the gaming version?

45 euro isn't huge, get the gaming X

Want to custom loop?  Ask me more if you are curious

Get the cheapest one. There isn't enough of a difference between them to justify spending more than you have to.

I would evade blower card personally in think the gaming x gives u more potential due to added cooling allowing more headroom for further tweaking

How much does other options cost? Just asking cuz these two arent best value deals most of the time. Out of these two, the Gaming X is the superior deal because the Aero just sucks. Not just the 1070ti, even the 1080 and 1070 are. Buyers looking for a cheap card to go watercooling say that Aero cards just overclock terribly and they regret this purchase

Gaming X has one of the best coolers so it should be very quiet and run cool. Aero has a reference cooler which sucks.
