hello, today i will order these from newegg

i7 8700k
evga gtx 1080 FTW or SC
acer 27" 144hz 1440p

and i have a mid tower case corsair carbide spec 01

Iam looking for a cheap mb,ram (16 gb),psu and cpu cooler to go with them, i don't really care about brand name or looks, i just want them practical and as cheap as possible

preferably from newegg because their international shipping is cheaper than others

You will want a Z370 based motherboard.
Look for the cheapest one, they are all decent.

Ditto on the ram. Buy a 2 x 8gb DDR4 kit.
2400 speed will likely be the cheapest and will work well.

Do not go cheap on the psu.
Look for a tier 1/2/3 unit of 650w.

Seasonic focus is excellent and is sometimes on sale.

Your case has only 150mm available for a cpu cooler.
None of those coolers suggested above will fit.
The cryorig H7 is one of the few that will fit at 145mm. Most will need 160mm.
