I want to upgrade my GPU to the GTX GeForce 1070 but need advice, I'm not sure if I should get the reference model with a blower or a non-reference with multiple fans.

Ideally, I'd go with a non-reference but I'm not sure if my case would vent enough heat efficiently. I'm using the Corsair Graphite 600T white model. It has a 200mm intake fan on the front, a 120mm exhaust in the back, and another 200mm exhaust at the top, I've disabled the top one though because I don't like the noise or the idea of dust falling into the case when it's not in use. I'm using a be quiet! Dark Rock 3 which is quiet and keeps my CPU around 25c while watching video in HD fullscreen, and the mobo is also around 24c idle.

I've mostly used blower style GPUs in the past, so I'm familiar with the noise level, but I need some advice, would it be feasible to run a GTX 1070 non-reference in a case with a single 200mm intake and 120mm exhaust or would my setup be better off with a blower GPU exhausting heat right out the back of the case?

The answer is non-reference.
Personally, I'd go with an EVGA card.

black friday deals have historically been a terrible scam
they just raise prices slowly the month before, so they can offer you "20% off" where you actually spend 5% more

The only things that go on sale on black Friday with decent savings are bargain bin crap they can't move off shelves the rest of the season.

Not sure where you live at but it can't be the U.S. either that or you're just a stupid conspiracy theorist that has no idea what he's talking about.

Definetly in the us.
Go ahead and look at prices of things and write them down leading up to black Friday
there's a reason why the EU has laws against raising prices of things then putting them on sale.

These cards sell, no point in waiting for black Friday for them. You'll either save no money, or just a few bucks. It's not a shit overstocked Samsung tv
