What makes you say that? The 1070 isn't really an option in this kind of a budget, the 1060 would be ideal in this scenario depending on pricing and availability.

 

You will also need a copy of Windows if you don't already have one. Those go for ~90 USD if you buy from Microsoft directly(which is recommended).

 

I dropped the 650W power supply, at most you can get away with 550W. Also changed the motherboard, MSI's lower end boards are known to have garbage VRMs which can cause problems. You likely won't need the extra case fan, so I dropped that as well.

 

I managed to fit in a 1060 3Gb with the changes I made, also switched to a slightly slower memory kit. It's still pretty fast, so there shouldn't be too much of a difference, plus you can always overclock if necessary.

 

If you need to buy a copy of Windows, I would say drop the SSD so you can fit it in the budget.

Corsair CX450M (2015), SeaSonic SSR-450FM, and  

SeaSonic SSR-550FM would be less expensive and better psu choices.   I would suggest spending a bit more on the ssd, Crucial - MX500 250GB.

With that said, you could step up a bit from my original idea to something like this:

All I really did here was throw a better SSD in, other than that it's identical to my first list.

Forget everything I said, this is your best option. Although I personally would go with a CX550M for the PSU instead of 450W.

When you want to notify someone without quoting you have to type '@', then the first few letters of their username and pick them off the list that is displayed. This last part is most important.

 

SeaSonic SSR-550FM is fully modular. But semi-modular is just as good unless one intends to replace the cables.

I don't understand how upgrading and fully modular psu are related.
