What do you guys think of this parts list? Can it handle 1440p gaming at 60+ fps and maxed settings (for most triple A titles)? Are there any parts you have different recommendations for? Thanks in advance.
P.S. I am trying to get matching color scheme (black and red) for as many parts as possible.

i5-6600k
Cooler Master Hyper 212 evo
MSI Z170a gaming M7
MSI GTX 980 ti
G.skill ripjaws 2x8 16gb ddr4 2800
Samsung 850 evo 500gb
Seagate 1TB hdd
Evga supernova G2 850W (maybe second gpu later?)
NZXT noctis 450 case
Windows 10

I'll also add my chosen peripherals:
Asus rog Swift PG278Q
Corsair K70 RGB cherry mx red
Logitech g502 proteus spectrum
Corsair mm300 anti-fray cloth mat extended edition
Kingston hyperx cloud 2
Perhaps some extra fans with led lights or led strips for extra coolness

Any ideas are welcome, but i will not spend much more than this, I am mainly looking if i have missed out on something or if there is a really good part for a low price i have not heard of.

Yes, the i5 is less important than the GPU. An i5 is good for gaming and the 980ti is a beast. The most important thing for resolution and fps is the GPU and a 980ti is top of the line. You will have no trouble gaming at 1440p.
