Right now or in life in general? At this moment I'm thinking about eating something. Maybe going out. I've already done my work for today and it's a nice day. In a broader scale I think all of us want to leave our mark of having been here. I'd love to be a superstar if it meant I'd be rich. Or have monuments built in my honor. But honestly, I think if my wife and future kids never forget me, I'll have done my duty. If my friends never do, I'll have actually achieved something. If it is possible to feel after death, I'd be devastated to have to feel like no-one remembers me. With that in mind I try to live my life, while to my own liking as much as possible, in a way that's helpful and nice to others. I'm betting on being remembered as a nice guy.

My personal opinion is that the mobo isc a bit over the top (z170) for the cpu i would get a lower spec mobo and get or more ram or beter gpu maby the 380x. Just my opinion for i dont always buy expensive mobo ( think its a wast if you dont overclock)  

It's a h170

That ram wont run at rated speeds with H170 chipset.

"DDR4 2133 MHz and higher memory modules will only run at maximum of DDR4 2133 MHz due to Intel© chipset limitation "

I could go for the the ASROCK k4 for £5 more. or maybe i could do what the other guy said and downgrade the mobo.

If you plan to overclock non-k skylake or upgrade to 6600k or 6700k in future, then buy Z170 chipset MBO. If not, go with H170 and pick slower (cheaper) RAM since it wont run over 2133MHz on that chipset.
