so these are the specs:
---------------------------------
CPU: Intel Core i7-7700K
GPU:GTX 1070 or 1080
SSD: samsuing 850 evo 500 gb
HDD: wd blue 1tb
RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws V 16GB (2x 8 GB) (Dual Channel Kit) 3000MHz DDR4 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM Desktop Memory for Intel Z170 Chipset (F4-3000C15D-16GVR)
MOTHERBOARD: ASUS Z170 PRO GAMING
CASE: Cooler Master HAF X
power supply: EVGA SuperNOVA 750 P2, 80+ PLATINUM 750W
network card: Intel Gigabit CT PCI-E Network Adapter EXPI9301CTBLK
COOLING: Cryorig H7

So basicly i just wana know if all these parts will fit together as a build.

question 1: do i need to have a network card or is that already included if i buy the rest of the components ? thank you in advance

question 2: does this gpu work with nvidia g-sync ?? Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080 G1 Gaming 8G
does it just have to say geforce for it to work with nvidia g-sync or not because i have a g-sync monitor

thank you in advance !

1: The motherboard will include an Ethernet port; no extra is needed.

2. All GTX... cards will do g.sync .

Your build is very good.

The 7700K is a 91w TDP processor. More with overclocking.I think I would buy a stronger cooler than the H7.
Noctua has a nice TDP chart.

You have 190mm available.

I think I would pick one of the coolers with a 140mm fan like the NH-U14s or NH-D15s.
Or, an equivalent from cryorig or Phanteks or such.

FWIW:
As of 6/9/17
What percent can get an overclock at a somewhat sane 1.4v Vcore.

I7-7700K
4.9 83%
5.0 62%
5.1 29%
5.2 6%

And... while new manufacturing will have updated bios, I think it is safer to buy a Z270 motherboard.

Swap the motherboard to a Z270 chipset otherwise you're going to have to perform a BIOS update with an older CPU(like an i7-6700K) on the Z170 before you can drop in the i7-7700K. You could get by with another case like an NZXT S340 Elite or the Phanteks P400S chassis.

Answers:
1| The onboard networking Ethernet port will be more than sufficient for your daily needs.
2| G-Sync is staple to Nvidia products. You're going to need a G-Sync capable monitor to be able to take advantage of G-Sync features from your GPU. AMD does Free-Sync not G-Sync.
