I'm new to this so i'm going to try to make this as simple as possible

1. I'm trying to stick around €2500 I will go up to €2800 if needed & I live in Switzerland.

2. It's mostly a gaming pc but I will also need it to do some school work. For games: AAA Games like Battlefield, CoD, Far Cry...

3. Sticking with 1x 1080p 144hz monitor.

4.Windows 10 64bit and Im not sure what to get a Audiotechnica m50x or a m70x. I don't have much space so im getting the Black Jazz Geeks ak33 RGB Keyboard.

5. My old notebook was really slow and it could barely play some games like Minecraft. And 3 months ago (I'm not 100% sure what happened) I think I somehow formated my system or something like that and now it wont boot.

 

EDIT: 1 question: Is it better to have 2x 1070s or only 1x 1080 and save up for another one?

not really for some games

suppose but a single 1080n seems to much for a 1080p buid and a pair of 1070's then has all the issues surrounding sli and crossfire.

You're overdoing it with the GPUs. I suggest getting a single GTX 1070 and investing more into a monitor. I've also switched out the SSD and RAM.
