Hi everyone, I just got an NVidia 1070 and I wanted to post some thoughts on this card. First of all, this is one hell of a card, and quiet too. Basically the fans do not spin in normal desktop mode due to low power consumption and I get the feeling that it is roughtly twice as fast as my old nvidia 970 from which I have been moving up. The Witcher 3 runs in 60 fps smoothly with all settings to max in 1080p and still keeps up roughly 30 fps in all settings to max in 4k. (I am running the card with a core i5 3570 which later this year will be replaced with an AMD Ryzen) HEVC encoding is somewhere between 190fps and 280fps depending on the settings for a full hd video card. And to the best the power consumption is less than with my old nvidia 970 card. The 10xx series is a milestone, nice job NVidia and definitely something ATI has to choke on for a while.
