Need help with combinations.

Solution
If it's 1080P/144hz I'd go 8700K/1080, for 1440P/144hz I'd go 2700X/1080 ti.

Although you could get the i5-8600K (OC it to 5+ghz) & 1080 ti and still have a beast of a system at either 1080P or 1440P/144hz. I would go this route if your gaming only (no streaming or video editing).
Both should be equally good. 8700k would give you more FPS in CPU intensive games. 1080ti should give you more FPS in GPU intensive games.
Both combinations are winners. Your choice should depend on what games you play.

Edit: If it was me, I would choose the 8700k+1080. But thats just me. :D
