Just a Couple Questions

Hello everyone! So I just have a couple questions, i'm thinking of building a pc with these parts I just want to know if there is anything that I can improve on in making it cheaper (mainly a different case). I just want too know if I should use a different cooler and if I should go with liquid or air on this situation. is there a  better case out there that is cheaper that I can use? Also I just want to know what 1080p monitors are good for a good price, (I don't care about 4k gaming). and I just want to know if my PC will be able to run overwatch on max settings 60fps or more, Battlefield one 60fps or more, rainbow 6 siege on max 60fps or more, and rust on max 60fps or more(main games I want to play when I build a pc). I also just want to know what are some  good stereos that aren't too expensive and headphones that are good and also not crazy expensive. And if I am missing anything please let me know and correct me, thank you!   http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/K8xs8K   (This is all in Canadian btw)

i personally have almost the exact same build, with the few differences being that i use a hyper 212 evo as cooler, a nzxt s340 white as case and a different ssd.

750W psu is overkill even if overclocking. get a 650w one.

do you want a 144hz monitor or 60hz? care abt features like G-sync?

I'm not really sure what G sync really does, (i'm really new to all this), and what would be the difference between 144hz and 60hz?

for regular 60hz monitor, the screen refreshes at 60hz which means it will give 60 actual fps even if u feed 120 frames per sec to it. so 144hz monitor will give u 144fps max.

 

G-sync is a anti-screen-tearing technology by nvidia, AMD have a similar one called free-sync. Both have pro and cons but g-sync is very expensive. maybe $100-150+ more than regular monitors.

if you play a lot of shooting games and want high level graphic, then you will need one, other than tat i personally dont see the point. if you just want a 1080p 60hz monitor, then it will cost u abt 100-120 bucks.

good luck my friend. be careful what you wish for. you probly looking at around 600-700 bucks here. anyway, this is sth i cant help you with, since i dont really know monitors.

 

but, for 1080p 144hz g-sync, you probly will have to OC ur cpu in order to prevent bottelnecking ur 1070.
