Link has been removed but 1070ti would drive that monitor fine and save cash, guess your looking for a system built for you ?
Your above post been edited but what's your total budget ?

Hi dude. I have purchased these parts.

Intel i7 7700k 4.2 ghz
G. Skill 16gb ddr4 3000
Samsung evo 860 ssd
Cooler master master Air cpu cooler
Evga super nova 750 g3
Asus prime motherboard z270-a

I'm looking to add a gtx 1080ti.

How good will that system be? I want to play games and also record bits of gameplay.

It will be very good. Almost top of the range (for gaming) except the processor. A 8700k you could argue would be marginally faster but not enough to make a real world difference.

You will be able to run everything very well at 2560 x 1440.

"Is it a good build? I want to play high settings such as PUBG and WOW and Smite." - would all be fine.

Worth getting a good CPU cooler and overclocking too.

Thanks for the information. Yeah the processor is an older generation. But I had it on finance for a while but now I've paid it off and never used so I already have that cpu so that's why I'm using it. So I thought OK I have the cpu let's get everything else.

7700k will be great.

I have the same setup on an ultrawide at 1440p and it's brilliant. Nothing i would change.
