Hi everyone I was hoping that I could get some opinions/reccomendations on a pc I made. I am looking to use my PC for 1440p/1080p gaming and was wondering if anyone else has any info on parts and such.
(btw most prices are in Canadian dollars since I am Canadian)

Solution
Change the cooler to a Cryorig H7. Not much more, but is a better cooler. If it is possible to step up to an R9 390 or a GTX 970, by going with an i5 6500 and a B150/H170 board, and meet your budget, I would do that. 1440p, you want at least a 390.
