They all seem to have the exact same coolers and 6 + 8 pin connections so I'd presume that they'd all boost to around the same speeds. Just a matter of which one you like the look of the most.

Even if that model is out of reach for both you and me it might effect prices on other cards but no one really knows at the moment. i only built my first pc at christmas and very happy with the improvement over console. I have a amd fury gpu for £230 as it was the best value at the time and it plays everything i have at 2k on ultra settings at a decent framerate apart from the new mass effect which is very demanding. I would love a card that will play at 4k at a decent framerate one day but i agree £700 is a bit much.

I hope so, got my RMA from OCUK and sending out the card this morning. I think I might just use my gaming laptop for now and sell the card. lol Undecided yet.

Yes I have heard of it and one reason why I withheld on locking myself to Freesync monitor and using instead just the standard one, but if the rumoured prices going to be £700 then that will deffo be out of my reach so nvidia might be the way to go. i have been an nvidia using since moving from voodoo (yes you heard this right lol), used amd gpu's til present for about 6 years give or take a year.

None of them are at £449.99. The one in the deal link is £487.32 + £5.28 UK delivery, the other two are Palit but are @ £503.06 + £6.90 UK delivery. Any other deals going on grey Palit GTX 1070 Jetstream?My RX480 packed up the other day and am awaiting news from the manufacturer regarding repair. If I get a replacement I will sell it and put the money towards to 1080. Would prefer amazon UK as I have few vouchers.
Scan has the grey Pallit at £509.99 incl delivery, more or less same as amazon. Would love to get this at the price as in original post.

I got the JetStream and have to say, I like how it looks. Went well with the Silver on my mobo.

Good price, ugly design.

The coolest and quietest graphic card for so cheap price.
Even under 100% load virtualy SILENT. Not to mention 69 degrees was the max i've seen.
Look after that, and choose wisely.

I Disagree, if you just match the colours, it's lovely.
Damn I just pulled the trigger on the Palit - A mighty upgrade from my 980GTX and I think means lovely 1440p ultra settings on my 144hz G-Sync monitor. Gonna be a long time till I move from 1440p to 4K+

You can join prime for just one month at 7.99 if that helps

The Palit one is at that price only for Prime members, so if you're not a member (like me) you have to factor in an additional £79 to that.
I did order the Gainward one though, which isn't blocked behind the Prime paywall.

You're right and as far as I can see, there's no cashback at overclockers either so, Amazon is the best here, in terms of price, at least.

They are price matching overclockers who have a few 1080s at £449

In reality they're cheaper from Amazon for the vast majority of people; Overclockers want an extra ~£10 for delivery.

Thanks for the post OP.
I assume the price drop is because of the anticipated release of the faster memory version of the GTX 1080 out soon. But are there any comparisons (actual or estimated) between the old and new GTX 1080? Would be good to know before pulling the trigger?
Cheers.
