Require Assistance Planning New Build

Hello everyone, I am currently planning a new build, and need some help with some of the components. My budget is 1850$ maximum, and as low as possible that meets my requirements. I am located in the US (west coast) and am upgrading from a mid 2012 MacBook pro 13. This system will be used for light gaming, such as rocket league, overwatch, but also some heavier titles, such as Fallout 4 and Skyrim. The budget needs to include monitor(s), and everything else not in parts list. I need a windows 10 key as well. The parts list is here. I don't have ethernet at my house, so I need to use a wireless adapter. Final thing: I really like ultrawide monitors, and would love to either use this one (60hz version) or this one (75hz version) 350$. I would be okay with a single or dual monitor setup, though.

Could you also give me a more budget version without the ultrawide?

is G2L one of EVGA's new series? o.O

Yes. @Energycore I think it's the same as G2 but the reason I picked it because of this

Build-In LED Illumination

I've tried to stick with the white theme of the case to some degree, and keep price low.

You've got dual monitors and 2x 3TB HDD that I would suggest running in RAID 1 (mirroring) for backup.
