With the changes that I mentioned above, also dropped the OS. You can get Win10 codes from reputable places like Kinguin for like $20.

z-chip mobo with non-k cpu, definitely needs to be rethought. Save money by dropping the z-chip, or spend the extra $45 on a 6600k.

 

Seagate's HDD's are infamously low quality, you should swap for a WB blue. 

 

Other than that, solid construction, a lot better than most of the builds we see come through here, just no thought put into them.
