Looking at this one currently

There are 2 other versions just on this one not including the dozens of other 1070s

Is there anything I need to make sure of when I select a 1070 eg compatibility with current hardware?

Thanks.

Naw, they will all be compatible, if any of them are.

/e Just make sure your power supply has the PCI-E power cords you need.
Length of card, and length of card that will fit in your case.

So how do I tell which is the best card? In the one I linked there are 3 cards at 400-430-450 but I'm struggling to figure out what the differences between them are.

I like EVGA. A lot of folks like the ASUS Strix.
Just don't get a Founder's Edition.

3 best without counting seahawks and shit

asus rog strix
msi twinfrozr
evga


any of these 3 fk the rest

i mean rog
prob all around best
but since thats so cheap
itll be fine
1070 isnt a hot or loud card

Asus strix might be the best one of the "normal" priced ones.

However, if a deal is available you might wanna consider msi gaming, evga sc/ftw and gigabyte g1.

g1 or ftw+

I have the Zotac 1070 Amp and it works great. It runs cool and is very quiet.
