We like the way EVGA has designed its new GTX 1070 FTW graphics card. It is powerful enough to satisify the most cynical at a gaming party.

The Geforce GTX 1070 is consumer graphics cards which belongs to the new Geforce Pascal generation. While it is the less powerful sibling of the GTX 1080, we think the GTX 1070 is the card for gaming at 1044p. It is just the right card to experience a new class of performance enhanced and VR gaming. When Nvidia unveiled the GTX 1080 earlier this year, it claimed that the GTX 1080 would outperform the GTX Titan X (Maxwell). Now we know the GTX 1070 can do the same thing.

Nvidia has introduced its reference GTX 1070 “Founders Edition”, and its partners are good to go with custom designs. EVGA is one of Nvidia's oldest and most experienced partners and knows how to gain user attention. This time EVGA has two custom coolers for the GTX 1070. The first is based on the new Active Cooling Xtreme (ACX) 3.0 cooler generation, and the second is a hybrid, all in one cooling solution with a maintenance free, self-contained water cooler.

The EVGA GTX 1070 FTW, which we review today, uses the ACX 3.0 cooler. This cooler has many small cool visually appealing details that the best way to present all of them to our readers is through a series of images. Here we show one image of the GTX 1070 FTW card. We left more detailed images and descriptions for the later sections. Please notice that the ACX 3.0 cooler is better than a standard graphics card cooler, but EVGA decided to keep it two slots wide, and you will appreciate this if you decide to go for SLI.
