Parts of current system
Coolermaster HAF-X

GTX 980 Ti
700W Coolermaster

    a z270, 7600k, 16Gb DDR4 3000, 500GB NVME m.2 ( check out the intel 600p, not as fast as the samsungs but still way faster than a ssd ) should drop you in the $800 bracket, $900 if you want the 7700k. 
    thats mine with the 7600k and it runs rock solid at 4.4ghz ( should be able to take it to 4.8 stable with a little tweaking )
     
    and being single is the only way i had enough to finally upgrade myself

    i was pretty much in the same boat, x58 760 classy, but with W3680 and 12GB RAM, might have stayed with it if it had pcie 3, sata 3 and usb 3. even after 7 years it still holds its own
