post your build pls. Budget? Which country?

Sorry I live in the US and my budget is about $1200 and my build is https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Likbreezy/saved/MXn999

But your build shows 1400? Any parts already purchased? As the website pointed out, you will want Z270 MB instead of Z170.

For your 1200 budget, get this better build:

In that case, two combo:

2. GTX 1070ti/1080 and 1440p 144Hz monitor
