Get a Z170 MOBO. You can't OC on anything but "Z".

Intel Core i7-6700K | Corsair H105 | Asus Z170I PRO GAMING | G.Skill TridentZ Series 16GB | 950 PRO 512GB M.2

 

Asus GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB STRIX OC | BitFenix Prodigy (Black/Red) | XFX PRO Black Edition 850W

I suggest you change the H170 motherboard to a Z170 since you have an unlocked CPU.

I suggest you change the keyboard and mouse combo to a mechanical keyboard, since you already have a mouse added.

Interesting color choice on the RAM and GPU.

I suggest getting a higher resolution or a higher refresh rate monitor as you'll be wasting the power of the 390X.

Other then getting a Z170 instead of H170 motherboard, no. Something like a MSI Z97 PC MATE for a cheaper Z170
