Hey guys!
Just wanted to share a video that I made of upgrading my GPU from Gigabyte G1 GTX 970 to ASUS ROG Strix GTX 1070

Nice rig, looks sexy! and congrats on the upgrade my friend!
Hey, thanks!
Been building it since September, 2015. Some stuff has been replaced since: Case, more ram 8GB ->> 16GB (needed it to run VMs for my work), then EVGA GTX 960 ->> Gigabyte G1 GTX 970, then sleeved cables, then RGB lighting, then Motherboard Gigabyte Z170 Gaming 7 ->> ASUS Z170 Maximus Viii Hero, added another SSD and another HDD, then Gigabyte G1 GTX 970 ->> ASUS ROG Strix GTX 1070.
In between also got Razer Mamba Tournament mouse, Razer Kraken 2015 Headsets, Razer Goliathus mouse mat and BenQ XL2411 monitor
Next planned upgrades: water cooling NZXT x61 Kraken and i7 6700k or i7 Kaby Lake.
Also, got a racing setup 3 weeks ago. Still working on it to make it look nice. Cables all over the place :-)

same monitor as yours too (144hz)
Fixed it. Unplugged the hdmi and plugged in my DVI :) Thanks for the visuals!
Yeah, I think HDMI 1.4 doesn't support 144hz (if that is what you have on your GPU) but HDMI 2.0 does support 144hz for sure. Mine is connected through DVI-D anyways and is more than enough for 1080p 144hz
.
DVI-D (9.9 Gbs) is faster than HDMI 1.4 (8.16 Gbs) but slower than HDMI 2.0 (18Gbs and 14.4Gbs after overhead) but it doesn't matter since 9.9 Gbs is enough to transfer data at 1080p 144Hz and 1440p 144hz but if you go 4k then HDMI 2.0 or DisplayPort.
Sweet video
