Avg Budget Gaming PC Advice

Budget:
2K, unless there's something really worth it for a little more.

Expectations:
Just a pretty good gaming pc. I am considering waiting for the GTX 1070 to come out sometime next month after reading. I currently am using a Mac, but now with blizzard not even supporting with OverWatch, I'd like a PC to go along with my PS4 (I'll still use my macbook pro for work)
Usage:
99% gaming. I still love my Mac for work, but miss having a gaming PC like I had years ago.
I will probably use a 1440p monitor. Suggestions for a decent one would be great, or even 1080p alternatives--not including monitor in pc pricing.
Special Needs:

Thanks for the help!

Going for 1440p on a budget, you can easily do it under 2k

Just wait for the 1070 to come out, the 1070 benchmarks came out today and the card is as powerful as a 980ti and the MSRP is $379 for a non founders edition.

wait until DS offers those get a Vanquish with an I5 6600k OC'd and a GTX 1070 and you will be set for 1440p gaming for around $1400 unless you want fancy cooling and stuff. Even a stock non OC'd 6600k would do fine, or a 6700 non K version.

Unless you need a full tower, want a ton of customization options or liquid cooling, go with the Vanquish, its the best dollar per performance PC.

I was a big apollo fan myself but after getting help from the members here, the Vanquish is the best $ option. The apollo is great but since its a full tower with many more customization options it takes up more resources for DS to work on and cost more.

If you want fancy and got the money by all means, get the apollo its a nice case that i really like.

If you're on a budget, get a Vanquish. A GTX 1070 can handle 1440p well around 60 fps, a GTX 1080 would crush it.
