A GTX 1070 on a 21.5" 1080p 60Hz monitor is absolutely ridiculous.

+KoolKat09 to buy things such as the GPU get it off massdrop (you may have to wait for newer GPU's to be discounted on massdrop) you can save a bit of money from getting it from there as they buy things on wholesale prices depending on how much people will be commited to buying the components such as the vendor says if you can buy 20 we will give it top you for $100 a piece if you buy 40 we will give it to you for $85 a piece and then massdrop ships the stuff themselves but shop around first as PCPartPicker does bot check every website only a very small handful of the popular websites not including eBay
+Mike3k24 why have a mouse and a keyboard mouse combo swap the combo for a better keyboard and +KoolKat09 shop around look at customer reviews and check different websites to get better deals as i saved around $40+ equivalent in pounds on just the RAM as the seller on eBay was doing a sale around 25%~ i think and eBay were giving summer vouchers for of £15 off for spending £20 or more which made the RAM a steal of a purchase so little things like this can save quite a bit of money and make it worthwhile

Except you're still recommending a crappy monitor.

A $1200 computer and a $100 monitor is like buying a rider mower when you only have a 10'x10' patch of grass in front of a townhouse. A GTX 960 and i3 would suffice just fine for that monitor.

Here's a serious build:

OP: There's a ton of different ways to config at this price point. But they all revolve around the monitor choice. This build is just an example using a 29" ultrawide monitor. A GTX 1060 can drive 2k resolutions in most games from 50-60FPS. This monitor is a little lower in resolution than 1440p however that should keep you pegged around 60 FPS in almost any game with plenty of room for growth as games improve. We can also design a build around a 144Hz setup or a 1440p setup as well, depending on wants/needs.

I feel there is a need. You would have someone spend $1400 on hardware and let it waste away at 40% utilization due to your desire of trying to squeeze in a 1070 and i7 into the lowest possible budget like recommending parts is a game. Further illustrated by your adolescent response that "You were waiting for someone to notice that" and "Here's my real build". This isn't a game. This is someone's hard-earned $1500 that they want good advice on how to spend and you failed to provide that twice, so yes, I do feel the need to be critical.

No, I do not believe I failed at all. I've done what I needed to do. Provided a build around the budget for the OP. Now, the OP didn't specify a lot of things. How can you blame me for assuming? So no, I was right in what I did, and IM pretty sure the OP selected a best answer and you probably un selected it. Nice going.

Keyboard mess up on the last build..I recommended it because it's actually a good keyboard but I forgot it included a mouse. Here is a good keyboard I've used it as my first keyboard and it was a great experience.

Sorry for being so vague with my question I am wanting a build with a 1440p monitor and am willing to increase my budget to $2500 to achieve that. I am just wanting the best performance I can get at 1440p within the price range. If there is any extra information you need than just ask. Thanks!

This is a 1080p build, but for your price range, I think you'll be very happy with it.

Will this still perform well at 1440p with new AAA titles if I am not wanting to upgrade my system in 4-5 years?

Yes this system will last you awhile. There's even new generation CPUs coming later this year which means that skylake prices will drop.

If I were to wait for the next generation of CPUs would it make sense to also wait for the 1080ti?
