Add to SafariThe Zotac GTX 1070 AMP! Extreme is a graphics card fitted with a high-end Pascal GP104 based GPU. It's one of the best GTX 1070 cards when considering the quality/price ratio. With a high 3DMark FireStrike score and a relatively low price. It's an extremely large card and occupies the space equivalent of a 2.5 slot. The large size is well-justified however since the cooler has 3 90mm fans which provide excellent cooling capabilities.

Pros
Pro Excellent cooling
The massive size of this GTX 1070 card is justified by the excellent cooling capabilities is offers. On idle the temperature gets as low as 36 degrees C and around 39 degrees C on light load. And this is without the three 90mm fans turning on.
On full load it rarely ever surpasses the 65 degree C threshold and it's usually somewhere around 58 degrees C most of the time.
With these temperatures, the Zotac GTX 1070 AMP! Extreme provides the coolest experience out of all GTX 1070 cards on the market.
Pro Good build quality
The Zotac GTX 1070 AMP! Extreme is wrapped around in Carbon ExoArmor for protection which gives it a robust and "premuim" feeling. As usual with Zotac, the GTX 1070 AMP! Extreme has a great minimalistic design. With 7 different colors to choose from and 4 different lighting effects.
Pro Nice looks
Despite the yellow on the back this GPU with the carbon look is very nicely designed.
Cons
Con Quite large
The Zotac GTX 1070 AMP! Extreme is a rather large card. It effectively occupies the space equivalent of a 2.5 slot.
Con May need a support bracket to prevent from sagging
Since the GTX 1070 AMP! Extreme is quite heavy, there's a risk of it sagging while mounted on the motherboard. This is why it may need a support bracket to prevent it from doing so. Unfortunately, Zotac has not included a support bracket so you will need to find it on your own.
