Gaming PC on a £1500 Budget

I'm making a new gaming build and want the best for my money, i have a h440 case already and a corsair RM 850w power supply already

 

I'm looking to play quite intensive games at 1440p on reasonable settings (high at most because i feel ultra gives too unstable of a frame rate)

 

as said above the budget is £1500 with no case or psu and i'm looking at probably x99 or z170 chip set 

 

thanks for any replies :)

If you're formally an engineer, avoid responsibility. That's what senior engineers get paid for.

no problem but you can also wait for the x99 (6800k(?)) coming next year and the new nvidia gpu's

that's very true although i don't know what the performance will be compared to the price however it might be a good idea to wait for them to release and if there not worth it then at least the older parts should come down a little

 

has a release date been announced?
