We review the ASUS GeForce GTX 1070 STRIX GAMING. It's factory customized and comes all tweaked and cooled so much better opposed to the founders edition. And it looks fantastic as well. Join me in a review of this 8 GB card from ASUS.

We did that throughout all charts. However new drivers are posted nearly on a weekly basis these days. These driver changes can have the effect of a product getting a frame or two faster and sometimes slower. If a slower card all of the sudden is 1~2 FPS ahead all hell breaks loose in these forums and suddenly I have a brand bias.
I am however working towards adding a competitive product chart with just 3DMark GPU scores so you guys can compare a bit better.
If you do the 3DMark chart can you include the driver used for each card? Or would that get to cluttered?

I don't get the point why you compare custom branded usually overclocked models with reference models.
At least add other custom models of the same brand to the performance charts when you review rebranded graphic cards, like in this case it would be Asus STRIX 1080, 980Ti, 980 and so on.
Its a bit pointless because the FE & custom cards oc to the same ish clocks due to reference board power limit full on custom boards like the STRIX have a higher power limit which mean ocing a little higher is easier so its a bit hard to include every single card on the market in reviews they would be a 100+ pages long lol.

No, because then people will say I have a bias for using driver X for brand A and Driver Z for brand B.

The charts would literally be pages long.
If you want to do the comparison go and find the old article where he reviewed the card. Most of the games are the same and it's not difficult to find it.
