Budget:
$3500-$4000

Expectations:
Iam looking to be able to run the video games I play at ultra settings without having to upgrade to soon.

Usage:
I currently have two 24" Monitors Connected to 1 Video Card however Iam planning in purchasing a 4K Monitor or 34" Curved @ 1440, I enjoy having multiple screens since I do work at home as well, nothing sinister, mostly spreadsheets. However it looks like a good size 4K or 34" might be just fine.
Gaming, mostly Blizzard Games, Diablo 3, World of Warcraft, Starcraft II, surfing, streaming videos. I like to multitask a lot and would like to be able to have games open while having the ability to web browse, play music etc...

Special Needs:
Would definitely would like to OC the Cpu/ Gpu however mainly just want a rig to support my needs without breaking a sweat.

I'm sorry to be clear you are saying you will be playing those games also with the new rig?

I need to know this info as it and your res will make a huge difference in the build.

Only MMO's , I think is worth mentioning I'm a multiplayer kind of gamer, for Wow(raids/bgs), D3 (rifts/grifts), i believe that will use more of the cpu than just gaming solo.

Res will be 1440.

That should be a little more then you need for mmos. Keep in mind if you want to max out fps games like fallout, gta you can with the 1070 at 1440p, but at 4k for those games you would need a bit more gpu, but for mmo's you are good to go.

If you need a storage drive just as the western digital black edition or enterprise edition.

My pleasure

Bit of info:

1. Do not install Mcafee , instead get a lighter better anti virus like ESET (number 3 on the list) Or any other good light AV.

2. With extra fans request that DS changes all case fans and connects all your fans to the mobo so you can control them via free software. This way we can control the fans without needing anything else (aka fan controller and etc).

3. The warranty here is 3 year labor and 1 year parts so if you want higher part warranty be sure to raise the warranty level to the desired level.
