Sorry to necro an old thread. I got tired of waiting and took the plunge. I ordered a 1070 FTW with the goal of getting me to a gen of cards/monitors with a high end single card solution for 4k+60 gaming.
tldr; A single ACX cooler card seems to run fine in a fortress without any OC and seems to have plenty of thermal room. I'll update if I have any overheating issues and maybe after a long game session.
At 1920x1200 and no OC anywhere at the moment. Performance is about what I expected for doing nothing other than plugging in and booting up.
Idles in Win10 37-45, no fans. Capped out so far both gaming (division/doom) and benchmarks at 72 with 45% fan speed. This is all set with my 3 floorplate fans pulling cool air from the bottom of the case/floor and 1 top exhaust out the top in my FT02. I have a D15 with all three fans blowing right out the top as well due to the case orientation. I also have a small/cheap desk fan that blows the hot air exhausting from the top of the case out my office door. Ambient room temp is about 74.

3dMark does not recognize the card yet so it's at a generic VGA.
