Get a different ssd, ssd plus sucks, other than that looks good.

 

I'm not sure why you're asking about tweaking it for a 1070 since just swapping the 1060 with a 1070 already is under budget...

 

Anyhow, a 1080 actually fits so I put that there instead.

Oops, just realized the 1080 I listed isn't in stock, the cheapest in stock I would recommend is this

https://www.overclockers.co.uk/evga-geforce-gtx-1080-ftw-acx-3.0-8192mb-gddr5x-pci-express-graphics-card-08g-p4-6286-kr-gx-300-ea.html

though that would put it a little over budget.

Not true at all, windows takes up like 16gb of space. I have a 240gb ssd+1tb hdd in my system and I'm basically not using the hdd at all. The games I have on the ssd total to probably over 120gb, the actual ssd space I can see is around 223gb, and then add up the random apps and stuff that I has windows is a lot less than 120gb.

depends on you, but 120gb easily fills up, i ran out of space on my old 120gb ssd in 1.5 years with a few programs, even without photoshop i was still very close to the limit with just 12-15gb of storage left.

I wouldn't buy an SSD smaller than 240 GB. The best reason to have an SSD is for quicker loading times in games, but 60 GB games are standard now and you're even starting to see 100+ GB games now.

it wasn't enough for me i guess, YMMV but i rather get some more breathing room now than spend more time upgrading later. BTW might wanna change your member title now that dex and cuda are back :P

Yeah... um I'm too lazy to think of something clever to say there instead :P

Im not sure to go with the 1070 or 1080, i switched the ssd to the one you suggested but the gamerock seems to be a pretty solid card for its price and Im trying to be as cheap and stingey as possible lol

If you want that then 1070 is fine.

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market.

 

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

i suppose its either 1080 and 128gb ssd or 250gb ssd and 1070

Then go 1080. GPU is way more important than SSD and the 1080 is 20-25% more power powerful if I remember right.
