Yeah for the 1080

Get a 212 Evo for now and get a 7700K. Then save up and get a X62 later.

Put it in pcpartpicker.

 

Get a smaller psu.

 

An i7 would be better, especially with the GTX 1080.

 

If budget is an issue, drop the Hue + and as suggested above, replace the H100i V2 with something less expensive. Perhaps a Cryorig H7 Universal. Also consider getting a less expensive memory kit.

 

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.
