New pc build, max at about 2k$ (EU pricing)

Hello everyone.
Im planning to build a new PC and i have some dilemmas about it. Id love suggestions.

I preety much have 3 options to select from, either the 4790K, or 6700K (which costs me 70$ more IN TOTAL meaning it includes all the motherboard changes, ram's, etc.), or 5820K (which costs 170$ more IN TOTAL).

 

CPU

4790K, 6700K, 5820K

With a Dark Rock Pro 3 cooler

 

Motherboard:

AsRock extreme 4(LGA1150, probably will change for something black coloured if i'll stick to it), AsRock extreme 4+ (LGA1151), MSI X99A Raider/Sli Plus, Gigabyte X99-UD4 or something of similar value (LGA2011-3).

 

RAM:

G.Skill TridentX (DDR3 - 2400Mhz CL10), G.Skill Ripjaws (DDR-4 3200Mhz CL16)

 

Storage:

Samsung 850EVO 250gb, WD Black 1TB (always might expand later, but i dont use much storage)

 

Power supply:

Probably BeQuiet pure power 630W (i love the looks of it), or something of similar power and from trusted company

 

Case:

I overall like the Zalman Z11 case looks/functionality. Think ill stick, dont plan on buying more than 100$ worth case, cause i prefer to keep my money at other parts (CPU :P)

 

GFX:

I was planning on purhasing the Geforce Xtreme 980ti (probably the air cooled one cause its just SICK), but also considering on waiting for PASCAL releases from the team green.

 

That's preety much it. Leave your suggestions below please. :)

 

@Edit:
What i do mostly:

Gaming, basic photoshop image editing, a bit of video editing (short videos, under 2-3 minutes). Wondering if 5820k will be worth it?

Get that 5820k. Hell it's a hexacore, plus it performs similar to the 6700k.

The only thing i "fear" about 5820K is the lack of onboard graphics. So i'd preety much have to wait for the new GFX cards or buy one straight away.

Waiting for nvidia pascal and amd Polaris is a decent idea.

No point in fearing those onboard graphics unless you don't have a PC right now, since the 6700k graphics are only good for browsing web, don't even consider playing any games on it unless you play like league at low settings.

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market.

 

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

Dude you have a 980 ti, why do you need the IGU ? You can render the image/video on your 980ti. (quoted the wrong post ahah)

I stated that i'll either buy a 980ti or wait for pascal releases (and maybe team's red response if it comes in time). The onboard gfx would allow me to use the PC while waiting for the release.

@Also, edited the thread a bit.
