If by chance is your father going to be near the Washington/Oregon border? It'll save you a bit of cash if he could buy the 1070 in Portland to avoid WA's very high sales tax. Seattle is the worst as it's basically 10%! Not sure if you can get sales tax refunded if you're not a US citizen?
My dad's friends in Washington is able to buy using his credit card so we will be able to save tax and buy online, he recommends using Amazon, i dont know if New egg has the free return policy.
So is it better to buy the 1070 in a brick and mortar store. or purchasing online and have it delivered to my old man's friends house?
1070 - Newegg.com
Here are my final thoughts
EVGA SC has high temps , but the FTW is better because it has:
- More power phases
- Dual bios
- RGB LED's
- First card in the range with hand picked silicon.
Considering this is FTW worth the extra $?
I have my doubts about the MSI due to some artifacting issues there was back in august, have they fixed that?

Otherwise, what MSI model is the best right now?
About the space in the case im a bit constricted cuz im forced to use the lower PCIE slot, i broke the upper one some time ago, stupid accident xD. Daño Slot PCI-Express , i hope ill be able to put the card under there again.
Asus Strix is very similar to MSI gaming x in temps. I if were to choose one of these 3 cards. which one you think is the best choice? Considering OC capacity, Cooling and Reliability
