All should work fine. 750W is overkill, 500W is fine for any single GPU setup. What resolution are you playing at? Don't bother with the 1080 unless playing at 1440p or 4k, its way overkill for 1080p (1070 is better value for 1440p). I wouldn't recommend getting AIO water cooling as you can get high end air performing better for the same price.

As I said earlier, dont bother wasting money on the 1080 for 1080p. Get an Rx 480 or 1060 for this as they are much better value at this resolution. Also, please quote my replies so I get notified so I can reply quicker.

A 1080 will do that well, but a 1070 will still last 5 years + high settings at 1080P (More if you turn down settings).

i want to keep settings in max so i think 1080 seems better

The gtx 1070 can max out games at 1440p 60fps, you don't need that gtx 1080. Which country do you live in?

AUS yea but in the future it might be better

I'd rather you get somewhat cheaper parts for the pc like a cheaper case, psu and gtx 1070 and get a 1440p monitor than you waste your money on a graphics card that's way overkill for your needs.

It's still way overkill, most people upgrade every 3 years anyway.
