You can 'try' to save money by overclocking... ditch the stock coolers and buy some custom cooler like the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo and you can get clock speeds stable on Prime95 upto 4GHz. Mileage varies, so can always back down from a stable clock just for precaution/prolonged used. Note that the i7 870 is not meant for overclocking, but it still can give you 'limited overclock' that helps a lot. My benchmark using GTX 970, can't remember the score but I recall about 5-10% slower than where it should be.

The Zotac GTX1080 appears to be using the Artic Cooling Accelero Xtreme 3 /4. That would be my choice.
Silent at full speed and it manages to cool the GPU very well. I am using Artic Cooling Accelero Xtreme 4 on my Asus Geforce GTX970. It only reaches 51c while playing the new Doom.
