1. Budget & Location - $1200 USD ~ $1600 USD

 

2. Aim - Personal gaming computer

 

3. Monitors - One 1080p monitor

 

4. Peripherals - Need a mouse & mechanical keyboard w/ brown switches

 

5. Why are you upgrading? - Old computer was outdated and I'm selling it

 

I also need a WiFi adapter, but I don't know what's good.

That particular cx green isn't good. Go for the evga supernova non-NEX, any Seasonic/XFX non-XT or the new cx greys instead.

I think the psu is to much. May be change to a 500w gold?

Do you think 550 W would be fine and are either of these good options?

Both are good options, 550w is enough. Also, the i5 will bottleneck the gtx 1070, move up to an i7/xeon if possible.
