    I can load and start up BF1 really smoothly. Looks beautiful without any FPS issues. When I get ingame, sometimes, which is random, I can just start dropping FPS. I usually have 100+ when I 1st start playing. When the FPS issues start happening, the lowest I ever seen it drop is like 10, but...

    Upgrading HP Pavilion 500-125a GPU and PSU

    The GPU uses 150W itself, so I believe you will be good with the 550W. Your current computer has 300W, and I never like taking it close. And I dont see any reason why the 1070 wouldnt work. And nice choice for GPU, look beautiful and performs very well EDIT : Under the GPU's webpage...
