I'm about to buy a new pc and I don't know what the best combination of cpu and gpu.. I'm choosing between pentium g4560 and rog strix rx 480 vs i5 7500 and strix gtx 1070, what would be better?
I would like to play in 1080p 60fps average and slight 4k gaming in these games:
-GTA V
-Assassins Creed Unity
-Rain Six Siege
-Overwatch
-Battlefield 1

The i5 7500 and GTX 1070. Both the GPU and CPU are faster.

 

Or did you mean G4560 with a GTX 1070 vs i5 7500 with the RX480? In that case I'd go for the i5 option probably, especially since GTA V and Battlefield are rather CPU bound games.

Does you mum know you're here?

The second one is better. I5 with 1070.
