gtx 1070 FE

skeeler88

I am building my first pc and want to game and stream on the same system. If I have the chance to get a brand new gtx 1070 FE for $299, and put that inside a fractal meshify C, will it do what I need? Will it overheat? Need help asap

No, it shouldn't overheat. Nvidia founders edition cards may run a few degrees hotter than something like an Asus strix card but won't put too much excess heat in your case like some custom cards do. Not to mention that the fractal meshify C has pretty good airflow.

Got my hands on an 1070 FE for 400 European Ruppies for my grill's build. It is inside a Silverstone PM01 which is pretty much one of the coolest (thermals) case on the market.

It does the job, but it's a bit loud for my taste when gaming and it doesn't take advantage of good airflow anyway

But for 299$, damn, that's a steal nowadays. Go for it, sell it, then go for a Quad GT1030 config

Should be finei. Every sense. If the rest of the system is up to par. 

 

Really depends on the res you wonna play at, the settings and the quality/size of the stream. 

 

Internet becomes a factor at that point as well.
