MSI GeForce GTX 1070 Gaming X review -
Product Showcase
The MSI GeForce GTX 1070 GAMING X 8G takes advantage of Nvidia's Pascal GPU GP104 based on 16 nm FinFet architecture, and with 7.2 billion transistors, 1,920 shader/stream cores, and 8 GB of GDDR5, it’s remains a fast product compared to the 1080. In Ultra HD it can advance up-to 25% in performance over the GeForce GTX 980 as we learned. Performance wise you are looking at a card that can keep up with the GeForce 980 Ti and Titan X in performance, often even faster.

The reference/founder cards have a base clock frequency of 1,506 MHz where MSI clocks the base frequency 76 MHz higher at 1,582 MHz. One difference of course is the use of GDDR5 memory over GDDR5X memory on the 1080.
The card has a 160 Watt rated TDP, 75-150 Watts is delivered though the PCIe slot, then 150 Watts through the single 8-pin PEG (PCI Express graphics) power connector and another 75 Watts though the extra 6-pin connector.

And with HDMI 2.0 support, the GeForce GTX 1080 can be used by gamers who want to game on the newest state-of-the-art big screen TVs. And yes, it's pretty as well ...
