This build is for my friend. He's going to use it as a general day to day computer, for schoolwork, and for gaming. Some things may seem a bit overkill for this use, but he wants it to last a long time and rather pay a lot now then have to change parts.
He's going to be gaming in 1080p and will mostly play FPS games.
Budget: ~$2500
Country: US

I can't choose between the two monitors.They both seem really good but I don't know which is better. So I was hoping you could help lol. And if there are better options, please let me know.
MOBO: I find the mobo the hardest thing to choose because there are so many things to consider, so I just googled a bit and this thing seemed pretty good from reviews. I also checked on pcpartpicker to see what people used and this was used quite often. Is the one I chose good? Is there a better alternative?
Will 32gb still be useless for his use a few years down the line? Should I stick with 16gb? And the RAM I chose, is that a good speed/cas one?
NOTE: He wants a red/black theme.
There is no GPU because we're waiting on the 1070's prices to drop a bit. But he's getting a 1070 for sure.
All of that considered, is the PSU overkill?
Thank you!
