NZD OverKill PC Build

[iKl9kca]

So I got ram free (64GB DDR4) and I want to make a new PC just for gaming and a little streaming, anyway here in NZ two 1070's are cheaper than one 1080 and I save around 200$, what do you think of my build?

It looks good, though the PSU might be a tad overkill. I also don't see a case, but I'm assuming you're just going to keep using the one you have.

 

Though I'm looking at your current PC, a 6700K with 980 Tis in SLI...you do realize that you're not going to gain much performance overall right? A 980 Ti is pretty close to a 1070 (stock speeds) in speed when overclocked. I don't think it's worth putting that much money down for new GPUs considering what you have currently.

I ment for a Fractal Design S, also look at PCpp ratings for watts on my build?? Yeah but I want this gen

Ah, I wouldn't trust the PCpp ratings for watts, you need to look at reviews for the actual CPU / GPU. The power usage is actually much lower than the PSU calculators online say they are. The 1070 also uses like half to a third less power than a 980 Ti.

 

Err, for the CPU, it would actually be a gen behind (Broadwell-E) vs your 6700k (Skylake, current). I mean if you have the money and know what you're spending, by all means, go for it. I'm just saying the performance might be around 10-15% of what you have now. Though I hope you're able to sell your current parts to make some of the cost back on the new system.

 

The build is really good though, hope it goes well for you. Oh, you might consider a WD Red instead of a WD Black if it's just for data storage.

Get better ram an possibly a different psu. You can get 3200 cl16 corsair ram with red leds for pretty cheap

Could do with a way better than that monitor you picked. Go for either a 1440p 144hz, 1440 ultrawide 100hz or 4k with gsync.

Huh nvm you got the ram free im a downy
