    Hell yeah, the 1660 Ti is pretty damn impressive. I have one in my current rig, easily slaps 1080p in every game I've tried with it. 
     
    Any reason for the FireCuda drive? If a normal spinning HDD is cheaper, that'd be the better value. SSHDs are usually a worse value, they don't have enough SSD to make a big difference for gaming, and the HDD part usually isn't as fast as just getting a straight HDD in the first place.

    What @xAcid9 said. Go to https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10 and download the ISO to a dvd or usb drive. Then do a clean install of Windows.

    Yes, that's how it's currently set up and should be fine. 
    When in doubt, check your load temps.

    The fans generally blow towards the side with the frame / struts. The blades also scoop in that direction.

    On your desk.
    On the ground, it would pick up more dust that you bring in from walking.

    Yes, you can cancel the order on the order page (https://www.amazon.ca/gp/your-account/order-history) you'll have a cancel order button. You won't be charged till the product ships out anyway so there will be nothing to refund.

    1. Different models have different features.  Some will be faster some will be quieter some will be cheaper.  You generally can’t have all three.  The brand doesn’t matter much though, as they vary constantly between features.  The model generally does.
     
    2. no idea but the internet will.  To make it more fun faster more expensive cards need more power so some will have different connections.
    look up your PSU on google and find out what connections it has
     
    3. no idea what an abpro motherboard is again, google will know.
     
    4. Very few cards still have dvi ports.  I assume vgi  means vga.  There are numerous ways they could be hooked up.  Does your monitor have anything besides VGA?  VGA is even older than  dvi.

    The 1660 should be a nice step up, if you are just going to go for 1080p I would look at the 1650 super. It looks like it is going to be the budget 1080p king (it’s looks much better than the base 1650).

    Just keep your iPhone 8 and go for a cheaper BYOD contract. If you're in Canada, the plans that come bundled with a phone are more expensive. The entire tab system on Koodo proves that. No Tab plans are far better than Tab Medium or Large. And on top of that you have to pay your monthly tab balance. You can easily save $500 per year by switching to No Tab and not buying a new phone. Because frankly, the iPhone 8 is basically flawless. 
     
    Keep your iPhone 8.

    You can also buy a DVI-D to HDMI adapter, and connect with an HDMI cable. I've done this in the past, and it worked flawlessly. Displayport to HDMI (or DVI-D) works fine too, but is likely more expensive, because it's displayport.
     
    For clarification: everyone above means DVI-D. DVI-I is more awesome than DVI-D (it has both analog (VGA) and digital (HDMI) connections, and you can recognise it from the four extra pins as seen on this picture:
