Early 2017 build

[Pumpedxd]

Wanting some advice on if this build is good for gaming and light productivity use. Wanting to pay around £1000, under this would be great but seems very unlikely, I can have a little lee-way between pricing. I can go a little higher, there's no concrete budget. 

 

CPU AND MOTHERBOARD: These items are currently acting as placeholders as a rough price guide. Since this is a build for January and both AMD and NVIDIAs chips are rumoured for this time, I will probably be going with either the new Ryzen chips or Kabylake, when these two arrive. I would expect for this to add around £20 - 30, although prices are only rumoured and estimated. For the new chips, I would go with either the unlocked i5 from Intel or a performance equivalent Ryzen chip, if they end up releasing one. 

 

Any advice on this build would be of great help.

Everything looks really nice for everything. Don't know what I would change. Maybe the cooler if you want to OC bit higher

 Go RX 480 8GB it is superior to the GTX 1060

Saying superior is wrong. It is better but not in a superior way

Yeah it looks good.

Maybe get 500 watts to get some more clearance.

 

Currently, the same Corsair PSU is on sale at £49.50 but for 550W. If I was to buy this part now, it wouldn't be possible for my requirements to be higher than this. Even if I get the new CPU architecture from either Intel or AMD.

yeah but then with that, whats the point in getting that cpu if you can't overclock because you don't have a capable motherboard?

I'll change the mobo,1 minute.

It's £115 over the budget, however you will enjoy overclocking and a gtx 1070.
