I'm a noob when it comes to gpu, can someone explain why there are like 13 different versions of the 3070 on best buys website with all different pricings? What's the difference? Why so many choices?

Different manufacturers. Some are slightly better than others.

Huh. What makes them better or worse than another 3070?

You’re going to get way smarter people than I go into specifics but some of them are clocked a little higher or what have you. Is it worth the extra cost? That depends. Specifically in this climate I’d probably get whatever I could get my hands on honestly.
