System builders are also stocking this. Companies like Maingear, Origin or Falcon Northwest. They are less likely to sell you "just the card", and will only sell this when you build a PC with them.

As for the warranty, "local warranty" for "peace of mind" doesn't work all the time. Case in point: Powerslide's "local" Sapphire warranty case. https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3990244 Resellers here are more interested in securing a sale from you than dealing with RMA.

The target audience for this card, for the amount of money he's spending, would've/should've done his homework and understands what he's getting himself into. If it's just for the sake of "buying a Titan for e-peen", then he deserves his fate when he realises the warranty situation. I've returned items made for purchase only in the USA before, and it's not all "horrors and nightmares" as it's made out to be. Reason being, local warranty procedures here in Malaysia is made so vague and not lined out clearly what happens in the background that buyers are more than happy to let the store they bought their items from deal with these uncertainties instead of dealing with it themselves. It's only that once you've done the returns yourself that you realise how clearly delineated the process is, while local stores here terrifies you with "buy online overseas warranty problematic to do" crap.

local warranty and peace of mind..its a pile of BS

and still waiting my replacement card after a week plus, because shipping it from few hundreds KM away to me really takes a long time..its surely a long way longer than ship to other continent whistling.gif

When you think of it, this case is the same as buying online, when RMA also need to send it hundreds of KM away from you, right? At least you are in control with the situation if you buy online and deal with the RMA personally, instead of relying on these people to do this for you.

1. The distributor can't be bothered to contact me to solve it
2. They say mine is a "special case" and they wanna give me back RM100 only because they treat it as a special case, im sorry to say this is not a special case..i pay the money buy the card i still have the warranty there are nothing special
3. yada-yada bla bla bla out of manufacturer warranty doesn't concern me a damn bit, push this to me just show how poor, stupid and ridiculous local companies are..they think end user like me will be easy push overs

anyone didnt go thru such stupid RMA will see it differently, if you have good experience it's good but now all i see "local warranty for peace of mind" is "local warranty take a piece of your mind"

Juz share v u guys a cheap GPU lifter to prevent ur GPU sagging . Go Mr DIY find tension rod which cost <RM5 thn mod the length , use a saw to cut the outer rod 1st after tht leave few cm high for inner rod and cut the inner rod because if u cut both outer and inner rod together thn u cant twist the inner rod to adjust the height . Done that for my ex , gtx1070  laugh.gif

actually not yet decide want RX480 or GTX1060 lol

but RX480 taking ages to release i'm kinda swing to GTX1060 now

QUOTE(kerolzarmyfanboy @ Jul 31 2016, 04:17 PM)
yes that's what part of me said in my mind.. biggrin.gif  but another part of me always counter back by saying "i'm not comfortable spending another RM300-RM400 more"  sweat.gif  sweat.gif
besides, i only have a 60Hz Dell S2415H IPS 21.8" IPS. No plans on changing to 144Hz or G-sync monitor anytime soon or for the next 2-3 years, so getting a GTX1070 is quite overkill  sweat.gif

add 300 can buy palit 1070, but add 300 more can get msi or other 1070..the add 300 again...it goes on and on sweat.gif

same lah..that zotac mini is small not intimidating below my big noctua cooler lol..also my previous card a zotac so i dont want buy zotac again..so far never owned MSI gpu before..might as well try

Thing is, you get 20-30% boost in performance from 1060 to 1070 with few hundred extra. Difference between normal price 1070 and high clocked 1070 maybe 5-10% increase only.

yea bro you got the point, those palit 1070 on gemfive with code goes below RM2k is damn good buy

how is palit card comepare to those pricey major brands?

EDIT : code PILIHAN12 not working anymore? sad.gif

- Gigabyte GTX1060 G1
- MSI GTX1060 Gaming X
- Palit Super Jetstream GTX1060

Leadtek don't wanna bring GTX1060 issit? haven't heard from them lately

lingloong said no ETA for the Gigabyte G1 1060..  sad.gif

I can't wait anymore.  vmad.gif

So guys, final question, there's no difference right between Jetstream and Super Jetstream aside from SJ has higher clockspeed right? and Jetstream can be manually OC-ed to the same speed as SJ right?

thanks for the link haha
