Need CPU/Mobo Ideas for my new GPU

[TrynaRockWitIt]

I have a GTX 1070 Ti kept away in my room, was wondering what CPU/Motherboard combo I would need to power this thing and not bottleneck it. I'd like to see both an affordable combo and a less affordable but more powerful combo if possible, thanks for reading!
( just incase, my motherboard is a LGA 1150 supportive one so thats why i need a new mobo too )

It will really depend on your budget and also resolution you'd be playing at. Also will it be used strictly for gaming or streaming/recording as well? You can always go for a ryzen 1600+b350/x370 combo or if you prefer intel an i5 8400+B360/h370 combo is hard to beat. If you want high end you'd probably be looking for an i7 8700k paired with a z370 board but thats going to be a bit more pricey.

I prefer 1080p 144hz gaming over 1440p or any other of those high end resolutions

With 1440p the biggest load is in the gpu and both cpu i4 8400 or R 5 1600 would be enough. Buying something higher would be a waste.
However with 1080p the gpu is over and what is important is the cpu. I recommend something superior like I5 8600K or I7 8700 (if you do not want overclocking)

If you go for I5 8600K you need a good Z370 mobo (aus strix or similar).
If you go for I7 8700 you need any mobo B360 or H370, the cheapest that meet your requirements (usb ports ...).
