So I have a maximum of £460 to spend on a graphics card and I chose to purchase a GTX 1070.

Now I am deciding on which model to get it for e.g. Gigabyte or nvidia etc.

My main two options are:

Nvidia geforce gtx 1070 founders edition (£400) and I will spend the other money on something like a keyboard/mice

OR

GIGABYTE GEFORCE GTX 1070 G1 GAMING that has 3x windforce etc... (£450)

Which one would best suit me and whether there is a big difference between the two.
Also it is unlikely I will overclock the gpu for a while.

 
Solution
The 1070 gaming card will have a high clock speed out of the box. It will also run cooler, quieter, and maintain higher clock speeds over time due to the better cooler.
