I have a budget of around $1200US with this setup https://nz.pcpartpicker.com/user/godstead/saved/2wDQ7P
and I was wondering if I needed to downgrade my PC in general to upgrade to a gtx 1070 while staying in the budget. Please answer

Im building a new PC and was wondering if it would be a good idea to upgrade from the 1060 (what I was going to get) to a 1070 while sacrificing other things to stay under budget ie. Ram, MOBO, CPU
