Because I sleep in the same room as my PC I want to make it really silent because im not planning on turning it off.

I have a budget of about 2500 Canadian dollars and I am planning on using 2 1080p IPS displays and  right now I already have all my peripherals. 

This computer will be used for gaming so therefore I would prefer my hardware to be really cool and silent at the same time.

Any advice would be appreciated.

yeah the 212 evo is fine but look at an AIO water cooler or a noctua tower cooler

There are better things for the money. (Or at least in USD) For example, Cryorig H7. 

BOINC Setup:
i5 7200U @ Stock

Core2Duo T6600 @ Stock

i3 2330M @ Stock

i5 3210M @ Stock

Add whatever more storage you need, change up the motherboard. If u want u can get the silent wings 3 or the noctua fans that have PWM. dont get highspeed. You will want a higher watt Powersupply so the fan doesnt turn. This is will be a silent pc even on high load.

If you are looking for silence, why not just go for Ryzen 1700, which runs cooler, though it won't give as good of gaming performance. Save cash on MoBo and go for a 1080ti. Go for something like BeQuiet DarkRock Pro 3 or good Noctua ones.
