Need a little help on considering what to go with for new build.

Alright guys so here is my question, its somewhat long so here we go, Im planning on building a new computer , My plans was to just go with Ryzen 5 1600 or 1600x and a 1070ti Gpu because they will work well together my problem is My 32 inch monitor is only 1080p 60hz so as im not really bottle necking my parts per say it seems like it would all be a waist to go 1070ti seeing that my monitor is only 1080p but if i step down my graphics card to say a 1060 6gb I will be bottlenecking by using the Ryzen 5. Would it be better for me to just get the Ryzen 5 1600 and the 1070ti and use it with the monitor i have now and possibly in the future get a 1440p or higher monitor or be better off just to downgrade my system build? And If i should down grade what Amd CPU and GPU should i go with? Sorry if this has been ask before i cant seem to find answers on it anywhere. Thanks

I'd pay the extra 30$ for a 1080, Linus says the 1070 Ti are regulated so they cannot be binned or factory overclocked.

An IPS, 1440p, 144Hz monitor gets really expensive. 400$+. Perhaps look into IPS, 1440p, 60Hz for ~200$. 1440p is 178% the pixel density of 1080p. Therefore you can push the GPU more this way. And starting at 27" you can begin to see the difference between 1080p and 1440p.

RX580 is the equivalent of a GTX 1060. It's there if you want the FREESYNC capabilities. Which isn't a big deal for me, freesync, vsync, and gsync all add latency so I don't use them. I have a Nvidia card with 2 FreeSync monitors because I don't care about the sync technology and I've never seen screen tearing outside of  Overclock testing.

Would It be worth it to go with the 1080gpu though with the 1080p monitor I have?

For typical non-Assassins Creed Origins type optimized games.

1060 = 1080p @80-144fps

1070 = 1440p @60 -144fps

1080 = 1440p @100-165fps, UHD @40-100fps

So its looking like in reality If i plan on keeping the monitor im currently using I would be better off downgrading my system to say maybe Ryzen 3 and a 1060gpu, because I will get nothing out of going ryzen 5 and 1080 using the Monitor I currently use.
