Ive tried. Im only 15 just trying to get into px gaming

its easy, I was 16 and already had a good knowledge on pretty much building pc's.

now honestly I've never noticed a difference between 60hz and 120hz  even though I have a monitor that can do 144hz.

wasn't a thing for me. and because I went on the cheap and got a budget 144hz it was riddled with color problems and everything, absolute nightmare. fixed it and its decenet though. a decent 60hz should do fine honestly and you can save money and spend money on better parts.

Nice mech keyboard, nice RGB mouse, nice case. I included a nice 1440p monitor. Most people with a QX2710 have been able to OC between 96-120Hz easily. GTX 1070 is fine for 1440p60, and will be alright for 1440p beyond 60Hz if you overclock the monitor. A GTX 1080 would be better, but not going to fit within this budget unless you drop down to an entry level 1440p monitor that likely won't OC as well as the QX2710.
