    First Build, Looking for GPU advice.

    go with 1070 if you can afford it. always better to have the strongest single card. also, the NEX psu isnt the best. look for b2 or g2 from evga.

    1600$ Gaming Setup

    that power supply is too small. for crossfire i would be looking at no less than 750W and likely 80+ gold. also, the 1070 is just a bit cheaper and uses less energy. it doesn't perform quite as well, but thats only if the game supports crossfire.

    PC Build, needs review

    its a bit overpowered, built like a gaming pc. you could drop the 750ti and just use the integrated graphics on the i5. also, Z170 motherboards are meant for overclocking. it will work just fine, but you could probably save a few bucks and go with a b150 or h170. the addition of a nice big SSD...

    CPU usage at 100%; recommendations?

    yea that CPU isnt very good for gaming. i would look at an FX 6300, you can get them for less than $100 used on amazon or ebay.

    Poor FPS Gaming PC

    FPS: 58.3 Score: 2439 Min FPS: 29.9 Max FPS: 92.4 same settings. yours is performing better than mine with an overclock. you are good. if you want even more frames youll have to get a better card, or consider a 2nd 970 since the price has come way down...
