Hi guys,

I have 2 or 3 quick questions.

I want to get a GTX 1070. Should I get the founders edition? I don't intend to overclock or mess with anything so is this the right card for me?

I dont want Zotac or a brand like that.. I assume MSI GIGABYTE EVGA ASUS are the best.. is that correct?

Ok so I've seen this card at price drops as low as €420. Now I cant find it in ireland at less than 550 in stock http://pricespy.ie/#rparams=ss=gtx%201070

So where can I get it from thats cheap and reliable and wont get stopped at customs for tax issues. Anyone have cheap availability from Europe or suggestions?

Thank you!

Overclockers is pretty reliable: https://www.overclockers.co.uk/gigabyte-geforce-gtx-1070-windforce-2x-8192mb-gddr5-pci-express-graphics-card-gx-189-gi.html

I got so sick of waiting for the partner cards that I just got a FE for simplicity.

The exchange rate would have been completely different for my FE a month ago so it's hardly relevant.

It's the UK, just a couple of days.

If you've not seen it yet its worth keeping an eye on the Nvidia GTX 10XX thread over in PC Building and Upgrading.

Supply is slowly starting to catch up with demand.
