Nope im not going backwards,i prefer the latest processor regardless ?

There are a mass of gaming PC on this site and to me its a bit like a jigsaw puzzle and quite confusing,i generally just look for high end graphic cards ,a lot of ram and the latest processor.

That's fair enough - i7 though is generally an advantage when doing high intensity stuff like video editing - the graphics cards are far more significant for games as that is where almost all the power goes.

To be honest if you can afford it then that PC is fine. There are things that could be upgraded or downgraded but nothing there that I would say is particularly "wrong". In the end I would be inclined to set a budget and get the best you can for it. You also have a reasonable sized SSD in there - you could shrink that but it depends on how good you are at managing installs between separate disks - most people find it easier to just use a single drive for nearly everything.

Only thing i hate is Windows 10 Im not really up on PC stuff anymore to be honest.

You don't need windows 10
It just makes your PC spy on you

I love windows 10, easily my favourite of them all!!
Has the best of both windows 7 and 8 which is fine by me!!

I'm cool with Windows 10 but need to turn off a lot of the reporting settings.

Hate the way Edge works at times, but love some of it's features eg: screen snipping and editing.

In reply to a post by time2die:

If thats the case why didn't they show it at E3 which is the perfect place and opportunity,what did surprise me is the quickness of the new Xbox One slim release,end of August.

No need to show their actual hand first I guess. They could still up clock speeds etc, but with regard to hardware (other than perhaps more VRAM) it's too late I'd say.

I have windows 8 on mine which is rubbish. I'd much rather have 7

Nice rig.

I wouldn't add another GPU mate. Too many niggles in getting games to run in SLI for your patience threshold (and mine!).

Just get the very best card you can afford and you won't be disappointed.

1080 perhaps?

Agree with Nelly here, don't bother with sli just change the 1070 for the 1080!!
