It will work fine. 

 

This is in the wrong section though. It should be in the CPU or MOBO subforum.

No you just put the Skylake chip to the board like any other Z170 and will work fine. Why not 7700k? It costs only a little more for extra OC

I thought I'm the only one who's going to put an 6700k into z270. And im only doing that because of the price, the z270 is only 20$ more expensive. Im talking about asus z270 strix compared to asus z170 pro gaming aura, they both look good , but the z270 have some more new features that might be useful in the future. But i might be wrong, so any ADVICE? ??

I honestly wouldn't worry about the new features of Z270.
