Hey guys! I've been at work creating this build for a couple days and I want to see what you guys think of it. What I'm looking for in this build is:
-1080p Gaming in titles like GTA V etc 
- Room to perhaps add a second monitor in the future
- Overclock-ability? Not to informed on this. Will I need water-cooling? 
- 144hz 1080p display
- 1000$ CAD budget 

I've also got some questions: 
- could I do better with any parts? Are some parts incompatible? 
- is the 1660 super a good card? Is it still recommended ? Is there any better cards for around the same price?

Thanks!

minor changes. 

 

different PSU, while its a worse model, it gives you a second 6+2 pin connector for GPU upgrade potencial (with some limits). and better case while adding a sinlge intake fan for the front.

Why did the budget drop?

You dont need watercooling. In fact good aircooling is preffered. Yoj can overclock, tho tbh i wouldnt bother untill you get an aftermarket cooler at least.

Not really with the givem budget. You could bumo storage a bit, but idk what exact budget you are working with anymore.

Alright thanks for the answers, regarding my budget the way I have it thought out is I have 750-850$ set for the PC itself and then around 200-250$ for the monitor. Sorry for the confusion w/ the budget
