Hey all.

For a 1070 I would pick up this:https://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127947&cm_re=1070_msi-_-14-127-947-_-Product

I haven't really been able to find a 1080 with a price that comes close to that 1070 outside of this https://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814137084&nm_mc=AFC-C8JunctionCA&cm_mmc=AFC-C8JunctionCA-_-na-_-na-_-na&AID=10592396&PID=3938566&utm_medium=affiliates&utm_source=afc-%zn

or this

Is it worth the difference in cost if I'm looking for the card that will last me the longest?

Your link to the "1070" is another 1080....I looked up the 1070 while there so have a good idea of the prices. Damn, they are more then they use to be, the currency miners are pushing the prices up. Anyway, the card you did link to, plus the MSI 1080 at $700 seems a better deal than any of the 1070 prices I saw, so on those cards, it's worth it over the 1070.
