Nepton 240m is very good, or H110i GT

FX-6300 cooled by Nepton 240M | EVGA GTX 970 SuperClocked | 8GB G.Skill ValueRAM | Cooler Master 690 III | Sharkoon WMP 500 Bronze |

Kraken X61 or Corsair H100i GTX. Can't go wrong with either one.

 

I have that same motherboard, Asus Z170 Deluxe + i7-6700k + Kraken x61 cooler.

NZXT Kraken X61 or CM Nepton 240M. Note also that any cooler said to work on LGA1150 will also work on LGA1151 (no changes in the physical socket) :)

I am not a professional. I am not an expert. I am just a smartass. Don't try and blame me if you break something when acting upon my advice.

1151 has the exact same mounting as 1150. Skylake is cooler than haswell. Ergo whatever was great for haswell is even better for Skylake
