Hello community, I have been trying to ask a question but apparently I am not following the correct "format", so here I go again:

Approximate Purchase Date: e.g.: this week (the closer the better)
Next 30-60 days

Budget Range: (e.g.: 300-400) Before / After Rebates; Before / After Shipping
$3000 Canadian

System Usage from Most to Least Important: (e.g.: Folding@Home, gaming, surfing the internet, watching movies)
Gaming

Are you buying a monitor: Yes / No

Yes, I have in mind the Samsung - C34F791 34.0" 3440x1440 100Hz Monitor

Parts to Upgrade: (e.g.: CPU, mobo, RAM) **Include Power Supply Make & Model If Re-using**

Parts Needed:
1) Processor - I am leaning towards Intel - Core i7-7700K 4.2GHz Quad-Core Processor
2) Motherboard
3) Video Card(s)
4) Cooler
5) Case - I do not need tempered glass as the PC will be on my left.
6) Memory change?

Parts I am Re-Using:
1) EVGA SuperNOVA 1000 G1 120-G1-1000-VR 80+ GOLD 1000W Fully Modular
2) Samsung SSD 840 EVO 250GB ATA Device
3) Kingston HyperX Fury Memory Black 16GB 4X4GB DDR3-1600 CL10
4) Keyboard and mouse.

Do you need to buy OS: Yes / No
Please note that if you're using an OEM license of Windows, you will need a new one when buying a new motherboard.

No

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: (e.g.: newegg.com, ncix.com -- to show us selection & pricing)

All of the Above

Location: City, State/Region, Country - we need to know where these parts are being assembled and whether there are good store-only deals available
Toronto, Ontario - Canada

Parts Preferences: by brand or type (e.g.: I would like to upgrade to Intel CPU)

Intel

Overclocking: Yes / No / Maybe

Yes

SLI or Crossfire: Yes / No / Maybe
SLI

I am excited to see the results!! Thank you community!

Damn that Samsung is a free sync and there is no 1080ti competing Radeon card. Bummer.
Only the 8700k/z370(releasing next month) like the msi gaming pro carbon are to be added to the build :

just hold out for coffee lake it is coming on the 5th of October then look at the I7-8700k and a gtx 1080 or 1080ti.
you will need new ram ddr4 look for 3000 or better.
cooling if you have the funds go with a custom water cooling kit from EKW or a AIO water cooler like a corsair h100i gtx
on the MB I love the asus rog hero boards but they cost a bit more they love to OC this is good to me.
on the case there is to many to pic from get what looks good to you and has a bunch of fans and can hold big rads

I included a faster nvme ssd if you need one. The g1 is not a good psu. It's okish. So I included a new one. And u would also require ddr4 rams.

Thanks Lucky, what is your CPU of choice. Also note, I don't own that monitor yet, that is the one I have in mind however.
