Pros: Card stays really cool, 65-70c on load with default fan curve, 40-50c custom fan curve(still extremely quiet.)
For the price of 270$ this card is currently out preforming my gtx 980 SC!
Card is extremely beautiful!
for 1080p gaming best card to get!
Cons: Default Fan Curve isn't the best for how quiet this card is on full load, you can easly increase the curve by 10%
To quiet, wasnt sure if pc was running for a moment!.
(not the card but) Zotac Firestorm software glitchy and dosent seem to do much besides monitor the stats.
Overall Review: Glad I saved 200$ and bought a 1060 rather then a 1070.
If you're on the fence, just buy this.1/10/2017 4:41:01 PM
Pros: - Not a physically massive card
- Works exceedingly well
- No coil whine
- Is very quiet overall even when the fans are on high (i manually put them there to see how loud they got. tower is about 2.5 feet away on the ground to my right and I found it to be very acceptable considering the RPM- in a gaming situation I've yet to see them rev that high.
Cons: I can't think of anything I dislike about this card. I've had it now for about a week.
Overall Review: I was hemming and hawing over which card to get and was considering the GTX 1050ti through the GTX 1070. Since at this moment I only game at 1080 resolution I opted for this card. If you game at 1080 resolution just pull the trigger and grab this, you won't be disappointed.
My case doesn't have a ton of room so while the size of this card wasn't a primary consideration, I did consider that factor when purchasing. I'm glad I did because honestly a much bigger card and I probably would have had to actually be creative to get it in.
I wasn't familiar with the company that made it but based on the reviews here, as well as the customer service I've received here in the past, I felt comfortable making my purchase. I wanted to chime in and add my support in case somebody else was in a similar situation.
-It comes with a Zotac sticker for your case, if that is your thing.
-The software it comes with seems to be effective and informative but I personally find it an eyesore. Some people might think it looks neat, which, I guess it does. It just isn't as cut and dry (its very stylized) as I'd like. Maybe I'm getting old.
-There are no LEDs or back cover to this. I am glad for the lack of LEDs as they are useless to me and I find them somewhat annoying. The back cover I don't care about. Some people take great pride on how their systems look. I just like mine to function properly.
All in all I am satisfied with my purchase, I would purchase from this company again in a heartbeat, and I would recommend them to anybody that asked me. I'm going to be building another system here in the somewhat near future and I look forward to buying another Zotac card.
If something changes my opinion I will update this review accordingly.
Pros: Huge improvement over my previous card (GTX 650 Ti). I'm able to run most games at full quality and it runs nice a quite. Has made my slightly older computer and processor a new life. (AMD FX 6350) Great price for a Nvidia card.
Cons: None
Overall Review: Yes I would recommend this card.

Pros: It's graphically in the exact sweet spot for gamers anything more than that and you're burning money.
Pros: -easy and fast install thanks to the size of the gpu
- I am able to play a heavily modded Skyrim and Fallout 4 on the highest settings while keeping 60 fps playing on a 1080p resolution.
Cons: none
Overall Review: - Coming from zotac gtx 580, the 1060 is a huge improvement.
Pros: Great card for the price. If you are gaming at 1080p there is nothing out you will not be able to max out while playing at 60fps minimum and typically up to 120fps with filtering on a slightly lower setting. I see a lot of people complaining about heat...if you have a case with decent airflow and aren't mining you will be fine. I have overclocked the card and still reduced it's max power and rarely reach 70c except in benches. Gaming it stays 50-60c.
Cons: Zero after 4 months.
EDIT: been over a year now I believe and card is still 100%
Pros: - Fans don't spin while using the PC for browsing internet or simply writing text, etc.
- Require a single 6-Pins for power
- Minimalistic design
Cons: - None, product works better than expected
