About this deal

No deviation has been made from the single eight-pin PCIe power input, and given that this gives the 180W TDP card 225W of available power, anything more would have been overkill and unnecessary.

VR-friendly display outputs see three DisplayPorts from the reference design dropped to two to make way for a second HDMI port instead, meaning you can have a VR headset and an HDMI-based display connected at the same time. The slot plate features five display outputs, of which a maximum of four can be used simultaneously in a multi-monitor setup.

The Quick Silver does have a slight clockspeed advantage though, which explains the difference there. The VRM area makes contact with the heatsink through a thermal pad connected to the heat pipes and fin array. A total of three 90mm fans ensure the right amount of airflow and pressure cool the heat sink underneath. You more of a cost premium going from Gold to Platinum rating on a PSU than you do from Bronze to Silver of even Gold. Damage to the Product that arises from cryptocurrency mining or related activities unless the model is especially designed for mining.

These charts go into more detail on power consumption at idle, during 4K gaming, and under the effects of our stress test. Asus imposes a relatively low power target of approximately 170W, which in turn causes a relatively frenetic GPU Boost frequency that's primarily limited by the power consumption cap. A place for everything NVIDIA, come talk about news, drivers, rumors, GPUs, the industry, show-off your build and more.

ASUS FanConnect features 4-pin GPU-controlled headers connected to system fans for optimal thermal performance.Exclusive DirectCU III cooling technology features direct-GPU contact heatpipes that transports more heat away from the GPU and outperform reference designs, achieving up to 30% cooler gaming performance. Damage (accidental or otherwise) to the Product that does not impact the Product’s operation and functions, such as without limitation to rust, change in color, texture or finish, wear and tear, and gradual deterioration. There are a couple of neat features here, one of which is FanConnect, which you will later see why this sets the card apart from the others.

Our first benchmark, Unigine Valley, shows the Strix 1070 scoring 3,869 points, putting itself right between the other 1070’s, all within 3% of each other. I was cautioned to pack the card very carefully, so I used the, very nice, original box cushioned by premium packing materials and enclosed in a very sturdy outer box. Take a look at the listings on any etailer, and you’ll see that all are listed as having the reference core clocks of 1,607MHz base and 1,683MHz boost and a memory speed of 8Gbps, including this one. One final feature that we've become accustomed to is FanConnect II, essentially a pair of four-pin fan headers on the PCB that allow to control DC or PWM fans based on the GPU temperature.

Leveraging advanced cooling technologies derived from flagship graphics cards, the ASUS Dual series delivers the latest gaming experience in its purest form - the perfect choice for a well-balanced build. The Strix also manages to best its peers in this title, no doubt due to newer drivers in an newer title.
