I just stumbled across this deal on Newegg today. It's a pre-built CyberPower PC that is Kaby Lake based with a 7700K and an EVGA GTX 1070. Even includes a keyboard and mouse. I priced it out on Amazon with the same parts, same brands. You are getting this system at cost and also get a Win 10 license. So if you're not into building your own CustoMac this would be a perfectly painless solution for you. The motherboard is the MSI Z270-A Pro. It is in the Kaby Lake Early adopters guide. Case is by Phanteks. The only possible problem I can see is the CX-650M PSU. It's not a bad PSU, just for this caliber of build I'd go with something better like a Seasonic 650W gold rated PSU. If you work with Adobe Apps like Premiere Pro and Photoshop and also like to game in Windows this is the perfect, low cost solution, best bang for your buck build. Shipped free, right to your front door too.

Sale goes through (5-17-17) it's normally 350 USD more. Price has stayed the same through 5-29 so it looks like it will stay there till Newegg goes back to the normal $1600 price on June 15th 2017.
If you don't like the CP logo on the front, just put one of your white Apple stickers over it.
Other option: Buy a replacement front case cover from Phanteks, problem solved.
Here's a video tour of the case. This shows the black and white version, not the gray.
