I have 2, 1070 cards - they won't SLI, so depending on which gives me better benchmarks, unless any of you have comments on these cards. My Asus 1070 is brand new, got it for free lol.. it has sat for a year, doesn't fit in current case. My Evga 1070 I bought in Aug of 2016 - so maybe I should switch to the asus, nice and fresh hah

Good Morning Demalii,
I just wanted to share my experience from a couple days ago. The motherboard in my tower let out the magic blue smoke this past weekend (tired capacitors on a tyan S5515 server motherboard from 2014). so i was shopping around and purchased upgrades that i am extremely happy with. I also have an EVGA GTX 1070 and love it. Below are the components i upgraded to and found they are very peppy for my needs (beginner CAD/CAM and Python Learner, occasional World of Tanks gamer)

His original build is like so much better. Anyways, op your build with the r5 3600 is fine. Should perform like a dream.
