Heya guys, sorry that i haven't been as active as i promised to be back on December, I'm legit in a serious row of school work, job and playing some other games for the experience, hopefully will find time this week to play with you!

NOTE: Not a total expert on Computers, doing my best with my lack of Knowledge, thanks for understanding.
I'll be straight, I'll list some CPU, Mother chips, GPUs, etc. i had in mind to build my first computer, my current investment limit is 3200USD (With some time might increase considerably).

I'm looking for the highest end possible without a lot of mind breaking knowledge, looking to run Far Cry games at Ultra with 80FPS+ (Far Cry, AC Origins, GTA V modded, Wolfenstein, etc).

I'd like to know opinions on recommended pieces or if you have a better suggestion, please share and also if you can, tag the price alongside.

CPU list:
1. AMD Ryzen 7 1700x
2. Intel Core I5 8600
3. Intel Core I7 7820x

GPU list - (Nvidia preference):

2. GTX 1080.
3. GTX 1070 Ti.

2. GIGABYTE AORUS GA-Z270X-Gaming K5 Gaming Motherboard LGA1151 Intel Z270 2-Way SLI ATX DDR4 Motherboard.
3. SRock Motherboard Micro ATX DDR4 H170M PRO4

MOTHERBOARD NOTE: Haven't fully checked compatibility with CPU, but as far as I'm concerned, all the 3 options i have in mind do actually work with Intel Core.

CPU Cooler:
1. Noctua NH-D15
2. NZXT Kraken X62
3. Arctic Liquid Freezer 120

Cases:
1. Rosewill Nighthawk 117 (Personal fan)
2. Thermaltake View 71 TG

RAM (Looking for 16GB+)
1. Kingston HyperX Predator Black
2. Corsair Vengeance LPX
3. Corsair Dominator Platinum

Storage (Atleast 500GBs)
1. Crucial MX500 1TB
2. Samsung 860 Evo 4TB
3. Adata SX700NP

Power Supply:
1. Corsair RM 750x
2. Rosewill Hive-750
3. EVGA SuperNOVA 850 G3

We have a section for stuff like this: viewforum.php?f=612
Move topic pls!
As for the build, look at the RAM, CPU and GPU only and then pick whatever is compatible and allows upgrades aside it (motherboard, PSU).

Also, do you want to go with SSD or HDD?
The only profit you get from SSD is faster loading of stuff (including games), not much aside that (no FPS boost, or very little).
My personal advice in this case is to get 2 drives, a smaller SSD for programs and your OS, and a larger (1-2 TB) HDD for the real storage (movies, games, etc).

The bar is the first when I logged in forums.I guess others to. The bar is the most forum was visited and attentions are attractive here. I'm sorry for bad English.

"Do not go off topic. Go to "The Bar" if you want to be random. Being random does not include being bashful and hateful. Rule 3 still applies to "The Bar"."

Doesn't mean you can do this, they made such sections for a reason.

I did a little research and come with a conclusion of what you should buy.
Looking at your processors you didnt include K version of processors. What is K ? K means that you can overclock your processor by simply increasing its performance through ur bios.
I will recommend you to go for a K processor if u r willing to play games on ultra settings like i7 - 7700K. Note: K processors don't come with fans and get overheated so there should be a proper cooling system.
Looking at your budget and products which you mentioned, in my opinion from

Processors: I will recommend you to go for Core i7 7th gen but if u can afford 8th gen then why not
PS: Not really an AMD fan so I dont know much about it.

Motherboard:
Look wise and spec wise I guess 2nd one will be best for you which is
GIGABYTE AORUS GA-Z270X-Gaming K5 Gaming Motherboard LGA1151 Intel Z270 2-Way SLI ATX DDR4 Motherboard.

Gpu:
Obviously the first one GTX 1080ti

Case:
I really liked the second one but I will recommend you to look for more. NZXT has many dope looking cases too, take a look at them too.

Ram:
Buy Kingston HyperX Predator Black. I compared all three that you mentioned and found out that kingston is 4000Mhz where as crossair both of them are 3000Mhz

Storage:
As robin said get a ssd and 2x 1tb hdd

Cooling:
I really dont know much but its better you buy the latest one NZXT x72

PSU:
I don't have any idea about that. It's better if you ask this from a computer expert/ shop keeper from who you buy these .

Good luck with your pc
