Yes, it will at 1080p.

you asked for feedback, so consider my idea.

more performance for the same money.

 

Alright, so I changed a few things, but kept the cost the same

Since you had a non-overclockable i7, I went for an E3 Xeon. It's basically an i7 4790k without the iGPU or overclocking capabilities. 

I went for a Z97 board for more features, like m.2 and more sata ports.

With the extra budget, I went for 32 gigs of RAM. You'll probably never need that much, but it was under budget.

Swapped the 1TB m.2 drive for a SATA drive. You won't notice the speed difference in real world use. 

Went for a 3TB mechanical drive for more mass storage.

Swapped the 1070 for a gigabyte card, just because I like their cooler design.

Went for an NZXT S340. I personally own this case, and it's great for the price. Plenty of space for expansion, and doesn't take up too much room.

Switched the NEX unit for a G2 one, which is of a much higher quality.

This PC Will be used for YouTube, The Elegato HD60S, Playing Games Such As Uncharted 4, Black Ops 3, Move Or Die, Dark souls 3, Gta V And It should be able to run the Occulas Rift.

If you have any questions feel free to ask me.

Thank you.

My PC Currently Is The P2-1320a.

change the EVGA 750W Nex to a 650W G2 since the NEX sucks

Why buy a z170 board if you dont plan on overclocking add a little more money and buy a i7 6700K

Do you really need a 1TB M.2 SSD?

 

Get a i7 6700K to overclock on that Z170 motherboard and pair it with a slightly better cooler like the beQuiet! PURE ROCK.

 

The voltage regulation on the NEX series is pretty bad so I swap it out with the much superior quality EVGA SuperNOVA 550 G2.

 

You do know that Uncharted 4 is a PlayStation 4 exclusive, right?

'Fanboyism is stupid' - someone on this forum.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

Yeah, why do you need a 1TB ssd? And better PSU for sure.

Um. No point in buying a mobo for an HDMI if you are getting a GTX 1070...

Go with the Asus Strix version of the 1070 instead also

Why?

Not that the strix isn't bad ( it is terrible imo because it is always quiet when you have it at less than 70% fan load ) and it doesn't have that good of cooling.

I'll take an extra 4-5Db at full load for a heck of a lot better cooling and overclocking potential.

m8, uncharted 4 is a PS4 exclusive

we're changing it because you asked if it was good. 

It's called constructive criticism.

Yea the Nex sucks the G2 is MUCH BETTER

i had experience with the S340 one of the best budget cases ever....

M.2 SSD's are usually not compatible since the length must match the mobo length

Hard Drivers vs SSDS in games only give you a couple FPS advantage for a premium price...

Honestly everything looks great except for the storage.

 

Get rid of the 1TB M.2 and get a 512GB SSD.

 

And upgrade the 1TB HDD to a 2TB SSHD.
