SFF 21:9 PC Build

I am planning on doing my first PC build and looking to end up with a rig that can run most games well (doesn't have to be crazy good) at 2560x1080p around 60fps give or take. I want to try and get it built for $1300 (or less if I can hold out to Black Friday). 

Would a gtx 1060 6GB, an I5-6600k on a AIO watercooler, and 16GB ddr4 ram in a Silverstone Sugo SG13 have enough power and safe temps to achieve my goals on the LG 25UM58-P 25.0" Monitor?

 

Below is the parts list from pcpartspickeer I am thinking of using. If you have any recommendations for different parts, your opinions would be great to hear.

If you want ultrawide, get at least a 30 or 34" size.

Ultrawide 25" is even smaller than a regular 24" monitor, way too tiny.

Would upgrading to the 29" version (LG 29UM58-P) be worth the $100 price difference? How noticeable would the change in pixel density be?

Everything looks good maybe get better speakers if your going to use them:D

I mostly use a pair of old (still good) Sony studio headphones for listening to music. I added the speakers when I realized the monitor had none. A pair of speakers is a "nice to have" not a necessity. If you could recommend a good set, that would be much appreciated. 

 

Sorry if I am asking a lot of questions. This will be the first PC I have had since the early 2000s when I was kid playing Simcity and Age of Empires.

Pixel density is fine. 29" is a lot better though.

Maybe look at cheaper brands like AOC or something if you want to save some money...
