I have decided to put together some parts for a new PC build I'm wanting to make, and would like your guys' opinion's (all negative opinions are welcome, unsure if this build will succeed my needs/wants).

 

Mobo: Asus Z170 Pro Gaming

CPU: Intel Core i7 6700K (was thinking of just going with the 6600K, anyone know any major differences aside from price?)

I have found reviews of the products listed above, but would also love to hear if anyone has had any problems with a mix of these components.

The i7 6700K has hyperthreading - if you're solely gaming, you're not going to really see any major differences in comparison to the i5. If you're doing some streaming, rendering, video editing, then the extra threads of the i7 will definitely help.

 

But uh, where's the GPU?

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

Do you already have the GTX 960?
