I've got a i5 6500, base clock, I've also got a 16GB of DDR4 2133 mhz ram, best gpu to fit this? preferably nvidia.
 
Alright, thanks, also quick question, is there any reliable display port to hdmi cable that you can reccomend? cause I am also getting 2 more monitors, and its hdmi only 🙁
 
Research the adapters , there are a lot of them , with very mixed reviews.

Make sure to look take into account the Resolution you will be running at.

What is your resolution? A GTX 1070 is completely overkill for 720p, borderline overkill for 1080p 60hz, and great for higher refresh rates and resolutions.
What games do you play? A GTX 1070 is insanely overkill for CSGO, LoL and DOTA type games, but for AAA, and the above resolution/refresh rates, it's great.
