You're missing a CPU Cooler, just keep that in mind. I do not believe that the Skylake CPU's ship with a cooler in the box, but I may be wrong.

only the k series... hes getting a non k chip si it will come with a heatsink

 

With an SSD what benifits do i get besides start-up times?

if you load your games on it as well your loading times will be much faster as well 

 

i put everything on ssds except for mass media storage, thats about the only thing i would use mechanical drives for any more

I know how fast ssd's are compared to HDD's, but to me its not worth the $50 for faster load times

Not sure either. Ill look into that, thanks

No you're good. I was corrected. I didn't see that you had a non-K skew. The 6600 does come with a heatsink so you don't really have to worry about it, unless you want to add another roughly $30 and get a hyper 212 evo

it isnt only the load times though 

 

ssds are quieter and last longer less chance of data loss

If you are only wanting to play CoD I hate saying this but unless you get an amazing PC may want to consider a console. CoD has a long history of being terribly optimized for console.
