He only has a 1600x900 monitor, 1070Ti is overkill without an upgrade. 

For $106, you can easily get a 16GB kit instead. 

That case is overpriced and outdated. 

 

Also, you have no clue where he lives

Only assuming you mean 1000 USD*

@Slottr I think sacrificing a bit on the flashier mobo and a bit less total storage is worth it for the huge GPU upgrade.

I debated that too, but thought freesync might still be a nice way to go with the 580

I live in Tunisia , but i'm going to buy the upgrade parts from Germany.

 

Thank you for your answers anyway

How about this? Couldn't quite squeeze in a 1070 or 1070Ti as they are a lot more expensive in Germany it seems.

Thank you so much Shiv , but what's the difference between AMD - Ryzen 5 2600 3.4 GHz 6-Core Processor and Intel - Core i7-8700K 3.7 GHz 6-Core Processor ?

Intel one will be faster in most scenarios, but the AMD is a lot cheaper, the motherboards are cheaper, and the AM4 socket for the Ryzen chip should still get new CPUs for upgrading down the line for at least 2 years.
