You can just buy a MSI Gaming 6G and OC it to reach the same speeds as Gaming X.

Assuming your power supply is good enough for either, whether the 1070 is worth it depends on two factors: what resolution you game at, and how long you want to wait before replacing the card. If you play at 1080p or below, the 1060 should be able to play almost everything at max settings for the next few years. If you play at 2k or above, the 1070 is the way to go.

Then a GTX 1060 is the best choice. I would suggest getting a card with 2 or 3 fans, MSI, EVGA,Gigabyte and Asus are the best brands.

Both MSI GTX 1060 cards are the same, the Gaming X is just a little more factory overclocked.
