There is a huge mistake.  That pc does not contain 1 single piece of AMD.  Not an AMD cpu,  not a Radeon GPU.   

Can you tell me why you are picking intel?   Just curious as to why, when the Ryzen line of CPU's have launched and you can do so much more with them for a lower price.

Dude i am a huge fan of amd but i cant find a way, find you help me out.

I want to keep the case nzxt H340s, and the gpu,

best thing i can tell you if you are going to content creation is go with a ryzen chip. 1700 is a good chip to use as well as 1600x. more cores and more threads is better when going for anything other than gaming. 

[benman2785]

first of all - the i5-7600k is a bad choice regarding futureproofness

as you dont want to spent much money consider a B350 MoBo and a R5 1600(X)

[benman2785]

also 8G of Ram is pretty low

when going with Ryzen choose 16G DDR4 3200er cl14

Can you guys help me out make this under 1k or else my dad wont buy me...

[derrickgott007]

Have you thought about going with an RX580 instead of a GTX 1070?  That will save you $100 US Dollars right there and give you awesome 1080p 60fps+ performance and great 1440p performance as well.

[theminiondude]

I dont want 60fps, i want over 120 and 150fps so then i can record game play as well! i know you are fan of amd but sometimes you should move out of 60fps game play. its better having more fps and i know there is other options as well.  ty for the info still

[derrickgott007]

Using ReLive from AMD & RADEON you can record gameplay as well as game at the same time with no noticable impact.  You don't have to have Nvidia to record gameplay.
