I have been thinking of getting into pc gaming for quite some time now and I have started to learn more and more about what I need in order to build one. I would like my pc to play any game with ease at relatively high graphics settings. I have made my own build on PCPARTPICKER and would like some feedback on what I could do to possibly lessen the price but stay at a consistent performance. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/sZpbYr
How Can I Lessen the Cost of My First Gaming PC but Stay at a High Performance?

For cost reduced at same gaming performance for 1080p 60 hz monitor
1.Replace the i7 with an i5 for gaming. (ryzen not price performer vs. i5 for gaming. i7 and i5 are roughly equal)
2.Most PC games will not need the CPU overclock possible with a $200 MB, look for $100 unit.
3.Glad you are investing in a good power supply
4.your gtx 1070 is a good choice, it will do highest settings at 1080P on most all games
5. 1TB size SSD is fine, you can also get a 250GB one and a 4TB spinning and keep the games you plan on the SSD, the rest on the spinning.
