I already have a ssd that's why i didn't add it, will be buying a CPU cooler later on if the stock cooler doesn't work out for me. 

 

Any suggestions? 

 

Mainly a gaming rig fortnite, lol, battlefield.... Not playing at a competitive level.

Just a couple options. If you plan to OC then maybe the 2600 over the 2600X and maybe a 1070Ti instead of a 2060 but that's a toss up if I remember the benchmarks right. Not sure on the monitor, that's more subjective but it's a higher refresh rate although a bit smaller than the one you picked out.

Replace the Seagate with something that won't die that fast.

 

Buy Windows on eBay or a key seller site. $5-$30 is a lot better than $124.

 

Ultrawide 1080p isn't the greatest choice. I'd recommend going with 1440p 16:9 with Freesync.

Any websites for windows? 

 

I absolutely want a ultrawide or would accept a curved 27inch display if you know any good ones. 

 

Seagates hhd die fast? What would you go with?

Looking into monitors at 27 inch right now , will go 2600 and will push it to 4.1 until i buy a be quiet dark rock pro 4 two weeks later. From there i will try to push it further. 

 

A 1070ti? Was told a rtx 2060was same level performance.
