What are the prices of the components?

 

I can already say that you should get a different case because it has bad airflow

 

Edit: this is better and all new parts

I mean yeah, it's a decent build. The 1070 ti is similar to a 3060 in terms of performance. The case doesn't have the best airflow, but the parts your running don't get that hot so you should be fine.

If the 1070 Ti is similar to a 3060 in performance, then a 3070 is basically the same as a 3080 or 6800XT.

Similar, not the same.

Not even close. 3060 is like 30% faster than a 1070 Ti, not to mention all other things it's better at...

 

Also how is a 3070 the same as a 3080 / 6800 XT? They are like 50% faster than a 3070
