Why a SFX PSU in an ATX case?

 

Not sure the need to get a 10000RPM HDD, you'll barely notice the difference in everyday use in comparison to a 7200RPM HDD. Get a HDD and SSD combo instead.

 

A H170, B150 motherboard will save you money since you cannot OC that CPU.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

it looks good

maybe get a k-version of that 6700 so you can take advantage of your z170 board.

also, get an aftermarket cpu cooler, like the CRYORIG H7 or CM Hyper 212 evo. the dark rock 3 is good as well.

Add an ssd, such as the samsung 850 evo for boot times and game loading.

I want your guys opinion on this pc. I am going to buy all these parts but before i do i want to see if there is anything bad about it.

You should really be looking at an SSD and Hard drive combo at that budget. Also I'd get the 6700k so you can do a bit of overclocking.

I just slightly tweaked his build to fit in both an i7 and a 980 Ti. The Palit Super JetStream is a great card btw.
