Pre builds almost always cheap out on parts inspite of selling at inflated prices. Not recommended.

This will keep you happily gaming on a 1080p 60HZ monitor for many years. Yes, the 1080 8GB is slight overkill on a 1080p monitor right now. In three years? It won't be. You just have one heck of a head start.

I exceeded 3GB of VRAM usage last year. If I am going to recommend a GFX card I can't suggest something that can't meet my needs from last year. I also have a 1080p 60Hz TV. Forward, always forward.

For Ryzen, this is a much more balanced build. You dont build a pc in 2017 without a SSD. Also Ryzen shines with higher frequency GSkill units.

An SSD is helpful. It expedites boot times, Windows navigation and game load times. It has other benefits outside of gaming such as video editing and other apps but I don't see it as essential in a build. I would rather inject that money into the CPU or GFX card and then add the SSD later on. They normally include cloning software which makes transfering OS and the rest easier. There's also freeware out there https://www.macrium.com/reflectfree that can do the same thing.

Do I initially want to save seconds or increase performance. An SSD can be added later. The user can't add $100 worth of performance to their GFX card later.

@Hellfire13 Have you visited the link for that GFX card?

Only compute power or gfx power doesnt amount to performance. SSD is also a performance boost in many ways.
This can be chosen in place of the 1080... https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814500408&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-PCPartPicker,%20LLC-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=

Um, sorry. Isn't that $100 overpriced due to cryptoming?

Check the graph closely on the 1080 you have suggested. That is overpriced too. You cant outrun the market. All cards are inflated. Beside that extra money is better put on SSD.
For 1080p even a 1070 is a overkill. But if you ditch the 1080 for it, you get more and better RAM as well as SSD which is tantamount to performance.

Not if you go to a proper pc building company. My Dad and also a friend of mine have had a pc put together as its piece of mind to know if something goes wrong you don't have to fix it, you just send it off and the company resolves it.

I built my own pc and it was amazing but in the future i may think of getting a prebuilt because building your own pc can be a pain and people don't always have the time to do it also if you break something weeell....

Its up to him what he decide thou, its just my opinion.

Its better to choose your parts which gives you quality and then take it to a professional who can put it together for a meager sum. All the individual parts still has the manufacturer warranty intact.

The question you need to ask yourself is, do you want 135fps for 3yrs or 105fps for 5yrs. If more fps is what you want, get Intel, else Ryzen.
Do remember that beyond 60-70 odd fps, the difference is not even visible to the naked eye, unless you place a counter on your screen.

Go for the 7700K build. In a few years you can then upgrade to the 1080. If it were gaming and editing and I had a choice between the 7700K and the 1700x I'd choose the 1700x. Pure gaming POWER? 7700K, all, day,long.

BTW, good choice with the cooler. Just make sure it fits in your case.

LOL The 1600 is a hex core that is a mainstream alternative to the 75 or possibly the 7600(not the K) when OC'd. The 7700K's gaming performance slaps the 1600 with a wet Ramen noodle and takes first place. WE also have the choice between hex and octo core that when applied to gaming is pretty much moot.

That's why I also brought in the 1700x to make it more of a fair fight.

Should the water not be muddy enough and the confusion not shrouded by fog, wrapped in a mystery, trapped in a singularity and hidden in an enigma enough for you... When value is king the 7600K is the best value when someone has chosen a Z270 board. It's a quad core that happiest when gaming. But in the most CPU intensive games Ashes of the singularity? I would want the 7700K in my corner.

KISS Principle? 7700K.
