Can't decide between this 2 Graphic Cards

Fabianz · Dec 27, 2016

Hey all! Im buying a new graphic card soon but i cant decide between this two:

EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 SC or ASUS GeForce GTX 1070

I play games like, World of Warcraft, GTA V and League of Legends, i have a GTX 950 but for wow i can only play in Graphic Quality 7 and im looking foward to play in Ultra.

I have a Core i3 6100 if that helps with something. Thanks!

Which Asus one? Dual or Strix? Anyway they're all good cards, hardly any difference between them, just don't get the EVGA FTW one unless you wanna open it up and apply thermal pads on the card since it runs a bit hot there.

You play on 1080p? 1060 would be better then. An i3 and 1070 will work okay but usually you get an i5 or i7 with higher-end GPUs. In very CPU intensive games (games that use a lot of threads) there will be a bottleneck with the i3, I don't know if WoW is one of those games. 1060 is fast enough for 1080p, it's at least twice as fast as the 950 (1070 only about 30-40% faster than 1060, and 1060 is about 100% faster than 950).

The ASUS Strix, im planning on buying an i5 next year so should i buy the 1060 then?

Depends on how long you want to have the card before upgrading it, and on which resolution you play on.

I play in 1920 x 1080 and i plan to upgrade it like in 2 years or so

Fabianz :

if you have a motherboard capable of overclocking then an overclocked K series i5 would pair well with a 1070

if not, and you still want the 1070 then you are going to need to step up to a i7

an stock speed i5 would pair better with a gtx 1060
