Apci Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 I have 1070 asus strix rog oc, i bought it cuz it had most fans and it is said that it keeps tempatures at the lowest, so i have it and i probably have never seen all of my gpu fans spin all at once, 1 fan spins every 20 secs and temparatures are still super low, so my advice dont worry about gpu tempatures that much like some ppl say from MY experience Seán That Irish Guy likes this Link to comment

Will Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 I buy from these 2 places https://www.overclockers.co.uk/https://www.scan.co.uk/ I find you get better shipping with overclockers and you get free Haribo which is a massive +1 but you sometimes pay a little bit more, Scan are good and often a bit cheaper but I have had to return stuff to them before and its a pain in the ass. Both though are good companies to deal with and good customer service. Seán That Irish Guy likes this Link to comment

Destrah Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 (edited) I've only used EVGA and I will say they have fantastic customer service/support and warranties. Other than that I don't have any personal experience or have done any research regarding performance differences between brands.
