i was thinking to upgrade my trio to this:

 

Intel Core i7 6700K

MSI Z170A PC MATE LGA1151

Corsair Vengeance LPX 8GB DDR4 2666Mhz CL16

 

the motherboard will give me a good OC in the future?

i am not sure about cooling if to keep or move to air cooling (budget issue)

and keep my PSU and graphic card 

Case: NZXT H440 CPU: i7 6700K @ 4.0 Cooler: Antec Kuhler H2O 920 Graphics Card: Zotac Mini GTX1070 Ti Motherboard: Gigabyte Z170 K3 RAM: Kingstone Fury 2x8GB Storage: Crucial P1 SSD, Seagate - Barracuda 2TB 3.5, Hitachi - Deskstar 500 3.5" PSU: Corsair Enthusiast 550W 80+ Mouse: Logitech G403 OS: Windows 10 Home 64bit  Audio: ATH-AD500X

If you want to OC I would suggest the 6600K and a better Motherboard. The PC Mate is "OK" but it's pretty basic and probably won't overclock well. Gigabyte Gaming 3/5 are good options if you chose the 6600K.

BOINC Setup:
i5 7200U @ Stock

Core2Duo T6600 @ Stock

i3 2330M @ Stock

i5 3210M @ Stock
