First Build, Need second opinions

[trentsteeze]

Hi everyone,

 

I'm about to build my first computer to update from an extremely outdated desktop and would love if I could have your opinion on my parts list, I'm looking to play games like battlefield 1 at 1080p with 60 frames on ultra, Also want it to be able to render 1080p video as I make YouTube videos. I'm also going to be using it for Photoshop and illustrator and need it to be able to handle multitasking well. The computer will be hooked up to 2 1080p monitors and possibly 3 in the future. It is important to me that the pc is very future proofed so things can be swapped and upgraded easily. I already own the graphics card so that cannot be changed. Will not be overclocking at first but could do in the future. I would like the build to follow a black and white theme so keep that in mind if recommending parts.

 

I value your opinion.

 

Budget flexable but not much more than the Total.

I would trade the 970 for a 1060 if you can.

I got a very good deal on 970 so quite a bit cheaper then the cheapest 1060 i can get.

Or you could also go for the 1070 if you want to fork out a little more cash for that performance but you should be good with a 1060

Get a better CPU cooler and a cheaper (same performance) HDD and you're good.

It's only a "bit" cheaper. The 1060 is better in the long run since it supports all of the latest Nvidia features.

Do you think it is worth paying $100 more for 1060 over the 970?
