That's overkill for 1080p. But it is actually a well rounded build and just get a beefier cooler for the overclocks and maybe a 650 or 750 watt power supply, again for the overclocks.

get a higher psu, and depending on your storage need, idk maybe a 120gb ssd will do...? You can also save on the case by getting an s340. they are amazing for a lower price. also, if you can, wait for more aib 1070s to show up in stock. evga didn't do too well this round compared to the other like strix.

It's under the good enough category and for the price, it's actually quite decent. I mean, if you wish, you could do this:

A 550W psu is enough for this system.
