This build will run all current games at 1440p at High details or better at 60 FPS. Should be fairly easy to put together, and will be awesome for non-gaming tasks as well, like multitasking, video editing, video rendering, 3D animation, etc. The total cost on PCPartPicker, along with the Corsair Strafe RGB keyboard, is $1599.52, which is like equal to your budget. Hopefully you get free shipping.
Hope this helps. Cheers!
