First Gaming PC. Thoughts? ($2000)

1- CPU yes GPU no not even good for now with this resolution and refresh rate

2- not something we can decide for you

3- yes that 1060 is about 100$ more than it should be

tried to keep it close to the 2000$ budget

but you need a beefier cooler for the 7700K

maybe it's better to go with a SSD + HDD instead

a 1080 is a better match for the CPU and monitor you choose
