Shipping will probs bring this to $1600, but it's a formidable build for the money. Based off the '$1250' build in my signature

He said 1080p - the 1070 is a 1440p card, the RX 480 is a better choice, allows for more of the budget to make a better all rounder.

Yeah but it gives him better future. Some games already can struggle to get 60fps at 1080p maxed out
