Skylake i5 with a 980 Ti? What's wrong about it - all powered by a top-quality PSU and running on a decent SSD and HDD. Nothing cheap about it. You could also go with a 6500 with a Fury which is still 35% faster than a 970.

I like to have a matching CPU and GPU compared to have it 60%+ Budget on a gpu

a 2.2 base and 2.8 boost i5? What's wrong with it exactly? The cooler will keep it at max turbo aka 2.8GHz. Factor in the 10% architectural improvement and it's like a 3.1GHz Haswell i5

winner will be announced soon

You have plenty of room to bump it up. It's under $1000, not under $950

I win! although my case is 10x cheaper than yours and using a Best Buy pricing as an advantage, mine is still cheaper with 16GB of Ram
