I can't speak to the mobile 1070, but my GTX 970 when it was running would be somewhere around 400K-500K PPD. My GTX 1060 performs at an equal rate but with lower heat and power.

I don't know about mobile gpu's, I'd presume they garner fewer points because of power considerations but that's just a wild ass guess.
I found a spreadsheet that compares different cards while not definitive it appears to give good ballpark figures. Do note that there are a number of factors that will affect performance: Windows vs Linux, driver version, motherboard, cpu (yes it uses some resources), and what else is running on the machine.
A pair of 970's will make you a competent folder. Would be pleased to have you come back into the fold.
The more the merrier.

Kudos to our fearless leader for hitting 700,000,000 points.
I was able to finagle a Quadro P2000 on my work desktop as I support a lot of people doing machine learning, fluid dynamics, and other GPU-friendly things. That was the biggest GPU my little desktop could handle that was available through standard vendors. Anyway, it has really helped my throughput. Unfortunately, I can only run folding@home on it when I am not using my system (nights/weekends) as FAH on the GPU makes the system unusable. I think there is a way [in Linux] to allow my built-in Intel "GPU" handle the display tasks while allowing the P2000 to do FAH, but I need to figure that out. All part of the reason I was able to get the ok to buy the GPU, as our customers want to do all sorts of wacky things with their systems. The more familiar I get with the hardware/software/drivers, the better I can support them.
I got it working. It wasn't that hard, but I had to use the Binary Installer with the --no-opengl-files flag and not let the installer upgrade the xorg configuration. The UEFI/BIOS has to support selecting the Intel GPU as the primary display as well. Anyway, I can run FAH on my GPU 24x7 now.
I did have to take one computer offline and another was shut down for a few days. I should be creeping back up the charts soon.
Congrats to edward_boggs for reaching and surpassing 10,000,000 Points! Way to Fold them proteins!!!
Added a new module to the warp core this morning. That should put some more zip in the warp drive. 
I have a GTX 1660 up and running. Expecting a points surge. Just might get me up to 2M ppd.

…and now, not so much:I was looking at your Stats, Voyager6, and I wasn't seeing anything extra until last night. Then, VOOM!
Maybe it you reverse the polarity on the matter/anti-matter steam?
Be careful doing that, you can blow the whole warp core.Maybe it you reverse the polarity on the matter/anti-matter steam?
That is what happens when someone uses your computer and then shuts it down despite the note that says "Do Not Turn Off".…and now, not so much:

The system is now back up and running. I should be getting a good 600K in additional output.
Just noticed you must be in Dark Mode? It came out White on a White background for me…Just noticed that jasonh1965 has broken the 6,000,000 point barrier.
Congratulations jasonh1965 on your achievement! Way to Fold!!!
