For Witcher 3, going from one 1070 to 1070 SLI, wasn't a huge jump. @ 3440 x 1440. (got them for mining primarily). Ended up getting a 1080 instead for my Ryzen gaming rig. If you get two 1080 SLI, let me know how you like it. I should of tried more games with SLI to be fair but addicted to W3...

Ordered an open box deal on a Zotac Extreme Amp! GTX 1080. Using it for 3440 x 1440 and so far have only tested Witcher 3 on it. Much better than my new 1070 and smoother than 2 1070 in SLI.

Ordered an open box Ztoac GTX 1080 Amp Extreme for my ITX build before the prices fly up anymore.

Same as above. Power draw mostly matters for my mining adventures. It is kind of fun that my current PC uses a lot less power and runs everything butter smooth.

Just got two 1070 for SLI Ryzen rig. My backup card is either the 1060 in my HTPC or my 290x in a box on the shelf.

I just got one to replace my AMD 270 that was heavily overclocked. The 970 is leaps and bounds better. Also slightly better stock then my 290x reference cooled card I just sold. The 290x with the stock cooler would downclock all the time and was not fun to play with. Still running personal...

This thread has me thinking about buying some XFX gear! Glad some companies still care.

Thank you for the fan idea. I water cooled my previous PC so I am sure I could replace a fan. Save them money probably in the process.

I have the MSI R270 card. The one fan is randomly now very loud and sometimes does not spin at all. Should I just RMA it or try to oil the fan?

I like it!

I have modded a 120mm fan to fit over an old shuttle case I had. I went real redneck and used fishing wire to suspend the fan over the motherboard.

If it was closer to $300 I would have got one for another toy. Not worth anything above that tho!

I want Bioshock and Crysis so would keep them. But will check that card out

Ops, my system is a 2500k OC with customer water loop. Normally set at 4.8 Ghz. 16gb of G skill ram, 128 Adata SSD. all on Asus ROG mATX board.

Currently running a MSI 6950. It was running for months at 960 mhz core. However, even at 960 Skyrim not that stable on my Yamaksi 2560x1440 monitor. When I got the video card was gaming at 1080p. For under $300 what card would be the best for Skryim and AC3?
