Video reviews

True aristocrat

If the junior video cards GeForce GTX 1050 and 1050 Ti are only formally included in the MSI Gaming X premium line (similar red and black colour), then the GTX 1070 has all the attributes of a top-class solution. The latest trend in graphics card design is customizable RGB lighting that synchronizes its flicker with the motherboard and case LED strips. For MSI, this function works through the proprietary Gaming APP.

frosty freshness

The cooling system of the MSI GTX 1070 Gaming X 8G is really massive and, perhaps, even excessive. Pairs of 10cm fans, three thick heatpipes and thick radiator fins are clearly too much for a 150W graphics chip. But as they say, a lot is not a little. Power is supplied through two connectors: 8 and 6-pin. If only the first is present on your power supply, then the second can be easily removed using an adapter of two Molex.

Bought and forgot

Buying a GeForce GTX 1070 paired with a FullHD monitor is probably overkill. The natural "habitat" of the GTX 1070 is 2K at ultra graphics settings or 4K at medium. As a result, the MSI GTX 1070 Gaming X 8G is a stylish looking and practically silent (both idle and under load) graphics card with a performance margin of three to four years.
