I will tell you one thing after using Win 10 for over a Year it's okay until it aint. My PC will run perfect on any OS but WIN 10 will crash and say something failed or fail to boot up win 10 randomly. It's a strange OS.

There is.  I bought a new laptop right after they released the new chipset, except I got a 980m as it was on sale.  Good for my needs.  You actually have a top of the line system.  Have fun with it!

I purchased a new desktop early this year so that I could edit videos.

None of the older computers would even begin to edit and process videos made with my GoPro 5.

My specs were similar to yours and it eats through video with no problem.

i7 6700K Quad core 4 GHz
16 GB DDR4
GTX1070 8G
Windows 10 home 64
240 GB SSD
2 TB 7200 RPM Hard drive.

I have  3930K 4.2 GHz desktop, currently with a pair of 780GTX cards.  I'll probably replace them with 1080's and see how it does.

Nice specs, but 17" is way too big for me. I tend to stay at 15" or smaller.

17" is my screen size of choice for a desktop replacement level notebook.  I have a 4G LTE Microsoft Surface 3 for note taking and light work when traveling.
