You must sort threads by "Last Message", the default is order by creation time.

I don't think that the difference between one 1070 TI and one 1080 worth the price, or even the difference between 1070 TI and a regular 1070, just a personal feeling. The 3 of them are very similar, around 1900 and 2400 CUDA cores. 1080 TI in other hand, is much better than 1080, with 3500 CUDA cores.

And you mention CPU Thermal Compound, you mean another cooler, or just the heat paste? I believe that vertical coolers are much more efficient, but changing the paste don't worth the effort.

For monitor I really liked the ultrawide screen, don't know lowest price however.

Looks like a fairly nice deal, at least with the $500 off. The Cyberpower PC configurator, with the current specials, can come up with a slightly more interesting config (3 TB HDD + 32 GB Intel Optane, 512 GB SSD, 1000W power supply) but it'll cost a couple hundred more with the 1080 Ti... The only downside to the newegg offer is the 'motherboard grab bag' thing. Some Z370 motherboards have 3 PCIe-16 slots, most just have 2.

But if it fits your budget, looks like a good place to start.
