What is your budget and currency? $1000
Do you need a monitor? Yes
Do you need a keyboard? Yes
Do you need a mouse? Yes
Do you need an operating system? Yes
What will you use the PC for? Pure gaming.
It can go up to $1250 Because i want the computer to be like 800-900 itself. Leaving $300 or so for monitor and accessories. Thank you

Oh I like that. The other thing I'm really wondering about would be a monitor? I can get a mouse and keyboard and headset myself I don't really need help with that. Just want help with a monitor as well.

Roughly 1100 for the PC it's self but it will work flawlessly and be really good looking.
You have a skylake i7 and a 1060 in a $1250 budget build...
PAHAHHAHAHA
Is that a bad thing?
Yes a Ryzen 7 and a 1070ti would fit within your budget and outperform the i7 and 1060 by miles

So I should probably swap the i7 with ryzen and 1060 for 1070ti? Would that still be compatible with all other components?

Yes however you would need to get a MOBO that supports the ryzen chipset

Kaby Lake. That's not even the worst part of it lol.

Not necessarily, depends entirely on the situation. He's not fitting Ryzen 7, a 1070Ti, and peripherals in to an $1100-1200 budget though.

Its actually $1200 and doesn't include any of the peripherals required. Kaby Lake i7 makes no sense. Over priced RAM. NO SSD!?!? IN A $1200 SYSTEM!? Plebian OG non TG S340 is for peasants.
OP - What games will you actually be playing? What else will you use the system for, if anything?
Will you overclock?
Any preferences(colour scheme, etc)?
