1080p 60FPS build?

[keenanredden]

I've decided I want to build a respectable PC without going nuts on a 1440p or 4K rig. If you guys have any parts lists you know about or any suggestions in general, that would be helpful. Here's what I need:

1.Something that can max anything at 1080p/60fps, including newer games like Horizon and The Witcher 3.

2. A good 1080p/144hz monitor, preferably 24 inches.

3.At least 1 SSD.

4. A tower with room for expansion. (May want to try for 4k in 2-3 years).

This might be a tall order, but any help finding something like this would be greatly appreciated.

I plan to play a wide range of games like Dota 2, Star Wars Battlefront 2 (2017), and Star Citizen. I'll need something that can bear the load.

Price shouldn't be an issue unless this somehow manages to be more than 2500.

Thanks, guys.

Will a 1070 be enough to max out whatever game I'm playing? I thought maybe I'd need a 1080 at least. Also, thanks for the build.

Wait till next week when the new Intel processors come out and see what they have to offer, get a GTX 1080 for sure.

If you want 144hz gaming, forget ryzen. Intel is the way to go. A good system for 1080p 144hz. Later you just have to sli or replace the gpu for 4k gaming :
