GTX 1070 Build

[Rethus4]

Is it possible to have a gtx 1070 build for £600?

 

[Sem_4_]

Theoretically you could get a build with the GTX1070 if you use only budget components and a really cheap cpu but this is absolutely not recommended.

If you want a computer with a GTX 1070 you should also spend enough money on other hardware in order to reach the full potential of the GTX 1070.

It would be like buying a 4k tv but only watching vcr. It has the potential but other components are holding it back.

did you spend part of your budget, or do you still have £600 after purchasing those things?


also you dropped cpu quite a bit... to get a fancier case??? LOL

Isn't this for gaming?
