So I just ordered parts for my new PC build.
Nothing special, I typically go 1-2 tech steps lower to save cash.
I5-6600k
Gtx 1070
An Asus MB (I think the z170-a version)
480 GB M.2 HD
16 gig ddr4 RAM
Couple of other bells and whistles. My old box of i5-750 and gtx 760 is still quite capable, I'm putting those guts into a new case to put upstairs for da wife and kids to use.
Any games out there worth grabbing to try to punish the new rig?

Is that the only HD you will have (or is this the SSD) ? For gaming you would be better off with a couple of TB.
For testing the PC I also would suggest ARMA III.
I have a ton of HDD's, and will be grabbing a 4 TB soon. The ssd is os drive only.
I have both games already. Be interesting to see how the performance improves
Digital Combat Simulator can be demanding when every setting is maxed out.
The 1070 card will run everything

Like that on everything. Needs desperate optimization, which the v2 engine (currently in beta) is supposed to achieve. If the devs ever get away from their WW2 distraction and finish the damn thing. :tickedoff:
