What one would you buy ?

xFetusx

Ok so iu am debating which of these 2 to buy ....MSI gtx 1070 ti gaming 8gb OR the MSI 1070 ti titanium 8gb . both have same specs and what looks to be the same cooling solution but its hard to tell from the pictures . The reason im asking is,  they are both on sale for decent prices right now and hearing rumors of tariffs hitting with a 25% increase in price for electronics so i would like to purchase before that happens (if it does) and i really dont care too much about the new cards that may or may not be released shortly . if anyone has some alternatives to these by all means let me know im always up for alternatives , of course if the price is right . thanks in advance .cheers

I'd buy the titanium just because I like the monochromatic color scheme. But if red and black fits your color preference, the 1070 ti gaming. They're pretty much the exact same card but with different color coolers.

I'd buy neither. With new cards just on the horizon, just seems like a bad time to buy.

If tariffs do come into affect, you're not likely to be affected, living in Canada ;)
