It's not only for gaming is why. I'm going to have 2-3 VMs running somewhat intensive programs in the background, hence more CPU and RAM. I'm fine with the specs of the 1070. Storage is also for LTS torrents.

Have fun gaming within the virtual environment. Been there, done that, not worth the extra hassle. Especially since you have to run a windows VM to play most of the steam library (especially games with anti-cheat clients).
You're better off building a ~$1k PC and then buying a Dell R710 (~$300) for virtualization since you can get some low power dual hex core/12 thread CPUs with heaps of ram
