Budget & Location

 The budget is £1000 but I'm willing to fluctuate as it's not going to be bought and upgraded all at the same time! (I'm based in the UK).

 

2. Aim

I want to be able to continue video, audio and photo editing as well as gaming, everything from AAA to pet projects.

 

3. Monitors

I'm running 2 27" 1920x1080 displays however I don't use both for gaming, which means I often have something like chrome or discord open on the other.

 

4. Peripherals

I'm fine with my peripherals the now and this is purely just a hardware build as I have windows.

 

5. Why are you upgrading?

 I'm currently running a GTX 1060 3GB, AMD A10-7870k and an equal motherboard, I've hit the limit of upgrade ability and I've started to get annoyed by the constant 100% load its going under while doing anything other than on the web of file management. Specifically i can't run a game like GTA V and Discord at the same time, resulting in me using my phone and earphones rather than my better headset and mic! :)

UPDATE: for now i will probably just keep with the 1060 in the new pc for a while and i need a lot of storage. Many thanks for the replies!

The OP hasn't told us if he/she is moving the old graphics card into their new PC.

If he wasn't going to reuse it then it makes no sense to spec the same model gpu again. Otherwise what is the point of not reusing the current one ?

 

Looks like he has edited the op to say he is keeping the current gpu.
