FC4 is for me no reference, hence Im able to run it at highest settings with an Asus GTX680 on very good fps.
Try maybe Crysis 3 as I would judge the game as one of the more deeper graphical details than FC4.

What temps are these peaking at? over 85C?
How's the OC feature on these new boards? I know they bumped up the base clock from the 900 series.

Quite happy with my Gigabyte GTX 1070 G1 I snagged for $450. Super quiet and am also running it on a 50W power supply.

Nice, I got the 1070FE a couple weeks ago to replace my Titan. Love the card so far, quiet, runs cool, and it effortlessly maxes out just about everything @1600p (Witcher 3 drops down to 40ish FPS occasionally but still, very impressive)

I'd have loved to get the 1070 but it was just a bit out of my range, the 1060 should be plenty for me and is a massive step up for now. Until I get bored with it lol

Quieter and cooler than water cooling, at least for stock performance, and I don't plan on overclocking, so overall a better choice. If I planned on overclocking, things would be different.

The heat still has to be dissipated somehow, so even water cooling has fans, and it has pump noise. So, at normal usage/no overclocking, an air fan is just as quiet, if not quieter, than a water system. And with little thermal stress from no overclocking, again, the good air systems are just as good or better than water systems.

Start talking overclocking, and all bets are off; water systems are usually significantly better, but I did say that in my OP, I believe.

Ok, if you think so. Glad it works for you.

I've built my pc to do just that. I didn't pick the quietest pumps as I was going for all out performance when pushed, but at idle loads it's fine. I sometimes do audio recordings so I was very specific in my setup and I can tell you it's unobtrusive.


And I'm not referring to the AIO coolers. Those are too gimmicky at best. I'm referring to a proper custom setup.

Additionally, as water is about 25 times better at thermal transfer than air, it's physically impossible unless we're greatly mismatching sizes of systems.
A quality fan setup is what he wanted/needed. It was only $60 and fits his needs. I don't know what you are rambling about.
