The order is done. The processor got changed to a i5 7600k instead of a 7600, due to some logistics reason. But they didn't charge me anything so fine by me 😀

Having an unlocked CPU on a motherboard that doesn't support overclocking won't hurt huh?

No its ok. Btw I have a Z board and a non overclockable cpu. ;-)

"ASUS GeForce GTX 1070 ROG STRIX OC 8GB Gaming"

its 583 €...

If you search amazon(uk) you will find gtx 1080 strix for same money as 1070. So a better card for same money. Here's the link

I'd go with a Ryzen 5 1400 and a cheap A320/B350 mobo, 4 threads are coming short these days.

5 years? of course your system will last, I would go with the latest chip sets Z270, at least 2600 mhz ram, cpu i7-7700K and GTX1080Ti, this is a 5 year plan, sorry...just save a little longer or have a garage sale, you won't regretted it!

Crazy. No one knows what will happen next week never mind in 5 years. No one.
You're really looking for what is best now in the hope that it will still be ok in the future.

or to be more truthfull
