Impressive specs.

I have the GTX 1070 In my laptop and although the FPS Is better In all benchmarks than the GTX 1660, you'll certainly be happy with Its performance. In terms of your Ram at 16 GB, will that suffice for your overall usability, particularly with future developments and needs?

I based this build off a "$800" budget build. While I added on to stuff like the storage and other items (which raised the price to about $1300-ish), the gameplay in the video was running amazing FPS on games such as: "Modern Warfare Warzone (110 - 130 FPS on high graphics), CSGO (230 - 300 FPS!) Dropping below 200 on heavy movement while never really going below 160-ish! Overwatch on Ultra video settings (170 - 200 FPS give or take)". Keep in mind this is all while recording as well. When the time comes that I buy the Ram, I might bite the bullet and go with 32 GB, but I think 16 should do fine for a while and might upgrade later on.

That's Impressive based on 800$.

When you get It up and running, I'd be very Interested In viewing the benchmark results.

Yes yes! I will definitely share! Might be considered grave digging by the time I am actually able to post, but it will be exceptional for the purpose!

That'll be great, I look forward to viewing the result.

In terms of grave digging, It'll be fine- you'll have good reason to reply.
