How is this build?

i'm looking to build an average gaming build and editing build, wondering if there is any better options for around this price point or any better items in general want to know what you guys think

i know i have the 1080 monitor there and i want to have that for the mean time because im going to save up for a 1440p or 4k monitor later on.

 

thank you for replyingg

1080p is 2k. Just so you know, You're probably referring to 1440p which is QHD, not 2k

 

 As far as your build concerns though here's my critique:

 

- Swap out the GTX 980 for a 1070

- Swap out the Motherboard for a Z170 board otherwise you'll be wasting getting a K-series

- Swap out the PSU for an EVGA G2 (should be same price or similar) or a seasonic S12II (same or better quality and wattage for less)
