I only see the clock rates are different and DT is cheaper. What is DT edition of FTW?

Physically the same. DT stands for De-tuned so it will be running at reference clock speeds.

Can it be overclocked to FTW speeds?

I wouldn't recommend a DT if you want FTW clocks - it is quite possible you get an FTW that did not pass the tests for running at FTW speeds.

maybe it would better to be renamed as "GTX 1070 ACX 3.0 RGB" instead of "FTW DT" 

You are not the first to suggest this  . If you want to read more discussion about this, check the thread about the 1080 FTW DT - it is basically the same topic like with the 1070 :

does it mean asic value of FTW DT is arround %50-60 or something like this?

AFAIK there is nothing like ASIC value for the GTX 10x-series. Only EVGA can tell you what internal measurements are taken to determine if a card gets a FTW or a FTW DT - but I can't think of another reason than being a bad (or maybe completely untested) overclocker, otherwise they could sell it as FTW and get more money out of it :>

Well it's simple really. DT is a lower quality FTW and not a true FTW card. It's basically a stock gpu speed with a custom pcb.

looks like a diesel car without turbo

Or a hellcat engine without the supercharger.

 
I'd say that's still a powerful Car lol

Yes, but the reference card only has one power plug. If bios modification were allowed, you could still ask the card to pull more power from the second power plug, so the maximum would be higher than the reference card.

So essentially DT means you are playing the silicon lottery with your low being stock settings but your paying a premium price regardless. Got it.

FTW DT's are basically reference 1070s with beefier PCB components, better cooling, and RGB lighting. Nothing to sneeze at and still the chance it overclocks just as well if not better than an SC 1070. If you can get one for SC prices or less it's a good option.

They said a equal value or great , Think im getting a less value now that I know what the dt stands for

 ok cool thank you for the info, guess been reading to much into it then

:-). Many of the DT cards (not all) can overclock further than the other cards. Yours may not, but the performance will be extremely close to what you had before.

I do not think you'd be happy if they sent you a GTX 1080 Ti  FTW to replace your Kingpin... I wouldn't.  And 'the performance is extremely close' under normal operating conditions.
Not trying to be contrary but I would not like getting a QA failure for whatever reason as a replacement for an guaranteed OC that I paid more for. Put another way, your insurance company replaced your Honda, with heated leather seats, with velour.
