Budget would be $1500 - $2500 including monitors with a dual setup. Typically tend to play games such as Civilization, Total War, Eve, but with teenagers, the rig needs to hopefully run Fortnight at high settings. Budget is flexible with the right setup.

I'm not sure if I need to go with a 1080 or if a 1060 or 1070 will do given the amount I game and substantial price difference. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
I designed my current system using https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/ which will tell you who has the best prices. But if you bring that into Memory Express they should price match most parts. They will also mount the CPU, cooler, and RAM and test them to save some headaches.
