Question 1

What size power supply do i need to run this card?

Accepted Answer

I ran 2 on 750 , you could go less I'd recommend 750 and 600 min just to have plenty , I imagine a 550 or 500 would work but you want plenty of power throughout your rig.

Question 2

is the "Gigabyte" on the back light up?

Accepted Answer

The only lighting on this GPU is the side "GIGABYTE" And the "FAN STOP" next to it. They gradually cycle through the RGB spectrum and have an appropriate brightness IMO

Question 3

Does this have G-Sync?

Question 4

how can i find a water block for this device?

Accepted Answer

Have no idea, never have had any overheating problems with the installed fans.

Question 5

Is the card a reference PCB or a custom PCB?

Accepted Answer

I’m not sure but the card feels cheap. The evga cards are much better and if you can get the FTW. Now the gigabyte Arorus extreme are nice.  You can get that in a 1070 and can over clock that card very well. I have owned all of these. From my experience the gaming cards are very light and feel flimsy also had issue with a fan intermittently making noise. Good luck.

Question 6

Is this a reference PCB?

Accepted Answer

No

Question 7

This card was going in/out of stock Dec 25 to Jan 3, 2017.  I placed a backorder 1/3/18.  I wonder how long I'll have to wait before my order is processed?  Or if going to be longer than 2 weeks I'll buy something else.  Thanks.
