As some have said, there are ways to get cheap keys for one, so it shouldn't be a problem if you're ok using ebay or similar alternatives. If not, it will take a noticeable chunk of your budget.
That's a well rounded build if you don't plan to overclock (for that you need a "K" CPU from Intel and a Z motherboard), although I would advise you to get 16GB of RAM, not 8. I know it sounds like a lot, but there are games like Battlefield that already run better with 16GB than with 8. The 480/1060 cards are more than enough to play current games at Full HD (by the way, I assume you already have a monitor/TV to play). The 1070 is an excellent purchase, tho (I should know, as I got one!). Lastly, but only if you can, try to get an SSD. Even if it's only 64 or 120GB (enough for the OS and other system programs) with a regular HDD for the games, you'll notice the PC to feel faster and snappier. |
will definitely look into it, though I know ssds run at quite the higher pricepoint.
