    Thanks for that.
    Is this a better option than my one?
    Not sure how to compare.

    CPU, yours is a hair faster, but won't have major impact.

    RAM, you didn't say how much you got. 8GB is min. You can easily upgrade RAM yourself if more is needed

    GTX1060 6GB > GTX 970

    SSD boot drive is a lot faster than standard HDD.
