The EVGA GTX 1070 SuperClocked comes with a relatively small overclock out of the box, increasing GPU frequency from the NVIDIA default of 1506 MHz to 1595 MHz. Other board vendors go much higher here. Memory remained untouched, running at its default, and we have no idea why. Our manual testing shows that there is tons of headroom left in these GDDR5 chips for a free boost to performance.
Our editors hand-pick related products using a variety of criteria: direct competitors targeting the same market segment, or devices that are similar in size, performance, or feature sets.
We had high hopes for the GTX 1070 Superclocked, and we have to admit we were just a little disappointed. Being familar with the EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti ACX that we previously reviewed, we figured the 1070 would be a significant step up based on...

Aside from the VRM area running a bit hot we have very little to moan about today's tested test-subject. All 1070 cards will be close to each other on performance aside from some anomalies here and there. Nvidia's limiters kick in harsh and hard,...
It is difficult to speak about EVGA iCX Technology and not get excited. As of this article it is by far the most advanced cooling solution available for any mainstream graphics card and the 11 patents associated with iCX Technology really seal the deal....
The results show that the custom GTX 1070s and 1080s perform slightly better than the reference model, however the difference is rather small. Custom cards offer more value mostly due to much better cooling and therefore lower noise levels. Those who...
Like its predecessor, the model EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 SC Gaming is one of a class of balanced decisions based on the base GPU GP104.And this is true – EVGA graphics card is optimally configured in many ways, and not only provides good performance, but...
The EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 Superclocked is an impressive card. Not only does it have a better cooler and has a higher clock than the Founders Edition (as is the case with almost all custom cards), the noise levels are very impressive even when we...
Willing to splash up to £500 on a shiny new graphics card? Approach with tempered expectations as such funds are only enough to bag a third-tier GPU in today's market. The top-of-the-range GeForce GTX Titan X is out of reach, as is the second-rung...
Any new GPU from nVidia or AMD always comes with a lot of scrutiny, and the performance that has been seen from nVidia in recent generations means that the microscope is focussed even tighter. This level of scrutiny has meant the boffins in the R&D labs...
So with the EVGA GTX 1070 SC Gaming ACX 3.0 not being the first GTX 1070 to come into the office there weren't too many surprises in our normal in-game and synthetic benchmarks. The 1070 Superclocked performed extremely well in all of them, showing...
