Gaming GeForce GTX 1070 Ti 8GB GDRR5 256-bit HDCP Support DirectX 12 SLI Twin Frozr Heat Pipes Dual TORX 2.0 Fan VR Ready Graphics Card (GTX 1070 TI Gaming 8G)

I recently built a new PC and stepped up to this from an RX 470. WOW what a difference. This card is a beast. Not super happy about GPU prices over all right now, but from everything I've seen they aren't coming down anytime soon and I was ready for an upgrade. I've only seen one price lower than this which was a bundle deal on Massdrop. I signed up for it and shocker it was delayed. It was only a $10 savings so I canceled it and just bought it from Amazon. This card runs every game I have at max settings and doesn't miss a beat. Seriously happy with this upgrade and the only thing that could have made it better would have been to find it at MSRP which is virtually impossible.

a HUGE improvement over my 970TI card! My previous card went bad and overheated to the point where I couldn't play games at all. This card works perfectly and is a big improvement. Total War Warhammer 1 and 2 runs perfectly and on ultra settings the graphics are amazing! I don't do Battlefield or counter strike or any of those but this card is a beast. So glad I bought it! It was easy to install- all I needed was to get a 6 pin to 8 pin adapter and I was good to go. Luckily Amazon sells one.

I absolutely love the power of this GPU. It’s basically a gtx 1080 without the higher price point and that’s what makes it so great. I absolutely love the design and the price-point. And the GPU is able to keep relatively good temperatures while gaming extended periods of times. Overall, I’m extremely satisfied with the gaming performance. So here’s a general idea of the games that I play. I’m currently playing Overwatch, Heroes of the Storm, League of legends and at times I play the witch 3. All these games have been locked at 60fps + at 1080p with no issue what so ever. I don’t have the exact numbers as I don’t really care for the frames that are lost beyond 60. ( maybe I’ll care once I purchase a higher refresh rate monitor ) PROS Multiple fans Keeps temperatures under control Excellent price CONS Bit noisy GPU is a big large and requires extra clearance ( plan accordingly ) I wish the outer case was white ( personal preference )

This review is for the MSI GTX 1070 ti Armor edition GPU. First and foremost: It's big. Make sure your case has enough space. I initially intended to install this in a Thermaltake Core V1 case and per spec I had enough room... in theory. Turned out the card fit perfectly but the frame of the case blocked one of the power taps. I had to replace the case to install this card. If you have a big ol' case don't sweat it, but if you're on a mini-ITX build this is just a heads up. As for the card itself, I'll start by saying the performance is fantastic. It was an enormous jump from my old GTX 970. I was able to bump everything up from medium/low settings on 1440p up to very high and ultra, and in quite a few cases I can even run games at 2160p or in between high resolutions like 1620p. It's very nice, and the higher resolutions are appreciated since I'm playing on a 4k display. In terms of power this card is very close in performance with a GTX 1080, and all it really needs for parity with the 1080 is a decent bump in the memory clock which can be attained with MSI Afterburner. Since these 1070 ti cards come at the same base and boost clocks regardless of manufacturer, depending on your luck with the bin you have a lot of headroom for overclocking. I'm currently getting about 50MHz core above stock settings and +350MHz memory clock, and that's an extremely conservative OC. I've read of memory overclocks of up to 900MHz and core clocks at over 2GHz. So in short, the performance is amazing and more than I even expected. Now, for the drawbacks... This card runs HOT. The default setup leaves a lot to be desired with the fans running at a measily 2300RPM and barely keeping the card below throttling temperature (83c) by default, or failing at that. I've seen it get up to 83c easily at 1440p and up, and this was with the fan pinned at 100%. My case has good airflow with three noctua 120mm fans, two on intake, one on exhaust, and an additional Antec fan doing intake as well, so it's not a case airflow issue. I contacted MSI for assistance with the heat assuming maybe there was a BIOS update or something and they just told me it was defective and to send it in to them. They didn't even ask any technical questions about the problem. After research I've found high temps are an issue with the Armor series cards in general, and no, the card is not defective in any way. There were a couple reasons for the excessive temps: * The factory thermal paste job was terrible. Thin and bubbled, was not doing decent heat transfer. There was more paste on the board itself than there was on the GPU's chip. :( * One of the VRM units was completely uncovered by the thermal tape under the cooler block * The voltage on the card at stock was higher than needed. * Honestly the Armor's cooling solution in general is underperforming. I ended up redoing the thermal past with Arctic MX-4, and while I was at it I stretched the thermal tape a bit to cover the last VRM. This alone brought the temps down a few degrees. Then I used MSI Afterburner to do my own voltage control. At stock the card was at 1.031v. It easily maintains the existing boost clocks at 1.000v and in fact boosted higher while staying cooler. Went all the way to 2012MHz on the core boost without really messing with it beyond dropping the power limit. To further control temps though I ended up locking it in at 1949MHz and +350 mem clock at 0.975v. At this voltage the card performs just fine and stays cool. It's generally between 68c and 73c now, with occasional spikes up to 79c if running at 4k on some games. So all told up to a 15c temperature drop. I'm not really happy with MSI's support service on this, nor the cooler's design, as it's really underwhelming. That said, it is extremely quiet. You can't even hear the thing when the fan is running 100% full tilt. That said, if you're willing to put in some work the card can run cool and fast, and performs great. But if you have room in your case, I'd probably recommend getting the 1070 ti Gaming or Titanium over the Armor series, even if they're a bit pricier. It's my understanding they run much cooler out of the box. All told, despite the issues getting temps under control I'm happy with the 1070 ti Armor's performance and would generally recommend it, but only if you're willing to put in a bit of extra effort to optimize the performance and experience with it..

Got it when it come out, no complaints.

Exactly what I expected and then some. Bought this to replace my 2 year old Radeon R9 390 that kicked the bucket. Fine by me I hated that card from day 1. This beast maxes out everything I throw at it @ 2K resolution. Ashes of the SIngularity, Ghost Recon: Wildlands and Witcher 3 all 60+ FPS maxed out 2K. Was easily able to get the core to 2ghz and the memory to 4.8ghz rock solid stable without much effort and the best part is the temps stay well below 70c in games, only getting to 68c max when stressing the card for OC stability. A far cry from the 88-92c my R9 390 gamed at. It's also dead silent too. never hear the fans at all, period. Love MSI products. I went with Asus Strix on the R9 390 and regretted it. Loved my MSI GTX 770 that was also cool and quiet. didn't think twice about going back to MSI. Glad to be back. NOTE: for those who are wondering about the difference between the MSI 1070Ti Gaming X and this Titanium, they are the exact same card, the only difference is the Titanium has 1 more heat pipe and higher quality thermal paste. This equates to about a 3-5c decrease in temps average. With the way GPU Boost 3/4 work, temps play a large factor in how far it will boost. Though it irrelevant if OC'ing (no point not to). Though even max OC'ing the Titanium will be a tad bit cooler (and thus quieter) over the Gaming X. Achieved a 14.1k 3D score in PassMark. A good friend of mines overclocked GTX 1080 FE achieved a 13.7k.

Everything works great. Was a bit dubious about ordering from America though Amazon having never done it before. But well impressed and would do it again.

At the time of purchase - 24.12.2019, the price of the card dipped to Rs 19999. I was a tad skeptical at first since at that price, it's much cheaper than similarly performing cards like the GTX1660 Ti and RTX 2060 which are priced at 25k to 32k but upon acquisition of the GPU, I realized that it's brand new and every bit as good as it gets. So, this might be the best purchase I've ever made. The GTX 1070 Ti requires a 6 pin PCI-e and another 8(/6+2) PCI-e pin. I use a Cooler Master Thunder 600W(which rates at 564W) and the card runs very well on the aforementioned PSU.

very good performance and runs all my games on highest settings with ease, also very easy to oc when properly researched. very impressed

Good condition. I replaced the thermal paste. It's working fine for its intended purpose.

Product as described.
