Question 2

Does the geforce gtx logo light up green as in previous generations?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it lights up green.

Question 3

Is this SLI compatible? and if so, what size PSU will i need if i am going to be using a AMD vershia 9590.

Accepted Answer

Hi there. The GTX 1070 Founders Edition is SLI supported, provided you use NVIDIA's High Bandwidth SLI bridge. It's hard to say exactly how much power you'll need, but given that each 1070 will draw around 160 watts of power at 100% stress, and the 9590 draws about 220 watts on top of that, it would be advisable to go with a 1000 watt power supply, since PSU's operate more efficiently at about 50-70% load. This would give you ample headroom for the rest of your power consumption, and would give you a nice upgrade path in the future as well. However, you should be able to suffice with a 750 watt PSU for now if efficiency and upgrade-ability are not of concern to you.

Question 4

Will this card work with a Dell 5k monitor to provide full 5k resolution ?

Accepted Answer

It will run 5k resolution, you can game on it too but you need to lower graphical settings to reach 60fps, i run my gigabyte 1070 FE 4k at med to high settings on newer games to reach 60fps

Question 5

Im planning on getting a 2nd gigabyte gtx 1070 to try in SLI, but i'd really be buying it for my other computer. Is it best to stay with the same brand, regarding sli, or does it matter? i currently have a 750 watt psu in my big rig. thanks

Accepted Answer

It doesn't matter, although you can buy from the same brand to control the cards easily with one software. Nvidia SLI is not restricted to brands, only to GPU type and memory.

Question 6

Will 2 of these in SLI bottleneck my i7 4790k? im using an evga g2 750 watt psu.

Accepted Answer

It all depends on the resolution you are running and the game. Also did you overclocked your cpu?

I ran two of these for 4k gaming with a 6700k and got 60 fps on highest settings (aa possibly off) on most titles.

Question 7

There is an offer for Ghost Recon or For Honor... When and/or where do I get access to this offer?

Accepted Answer

Once you purchase the game (or during checkout), you will be given the option to choose between For Honor or Ghost Recon. Once you purchase it, you will be given a digital key to redeem on most likely Steam.

Question 8

does it come with a dual 6 pin to 8 pin connector?

Accepted Answer

No
