I am a first time PC builder. I want my PC to be able to handle FPS games like COD and Battlefield very smoothly at 1440p. I also hope to be able to run Minecraft well. My budget is around $2000. How well will this PC perform? Any changes/recommendations? Thanks! (And yes, I'm aware that this build is very cliche)

1440p 144hz monitor, better psu, and an expensive water cooler is unnecessary.
