So first of all I'm in Canada, and we get the short end of the stick when it comes to pricing.
I ordered a Gigabyte GTX 1070 Xtreme gaming GPU for $687, they are still waiting for shipment, now there is the G1 gaming available also from Gigabyte that's selling for $750. I have been putting together my own PC's for years, and even though I'm not an expert I have some understanding of how different parts work. I can't seem to find any reason why the G1 gaming should be more expensive than the Xtreme Gaming version, unless I'm missing something totally obvious. If so, please enlighten me.
