Would this build work.

GPU: Asus AMD R9 390 DirectCuII, 8GB GDDR5

CPU: Intel Skylake i7-6700K, LGA1151, 4GHz, 8MB, Boxed

Memory: Kingston 8GB(2x4GB) HyperX Fury DDR4 2400MHz, CL15

Mobo: Asus Z170-A, LGA1151, Intel Z170, DDR4, ATX

SSD: Samsung 250GB 850 EVO SSD -levy, 2.5", SATA III, 540/520 MB/s

Case: Phanteks Enthoo Pro

PSU: Corsair 650W.

 

Would this build work with the 650w PSU or does it need a bigger one?

Is there something I could tweak for better performance (in the same price range as the original part)?

Looks good to me, power supply would be fine.

Push-To-Talk is a wonderful thing.

I would get an i5-6600k because for gaming you don´t need the hyperthreading

I would get this because of better price/performance:

Yes the power supply would work, but under load you want something higher rated just to make sure you don't have any issues in the long run. I'd suggest a 750W gold rating from corsair. Decent price and you wont need to replace it in the long run, even if you feel like adding upgrades like a second graphics card. Also you could save a little money on the CPU, the 6600k has nearly the same performance if not the same numbers. Unless you plan on overclocking in which case the high end might be the better choice anyway.

Is there any reason to wait for the r9 400 series cards?
