I'm pretty sure you need Z170 chipset to overclock current intel CPU lineup, so this mobo won't do.

Edit: Fine I'm blind. -_- I saw H and defaulted to H110.

 

What's your typical workload?

games really, wanting to get ultra on arma gta and a few other newer tittles 


If you want to overclocking & high / ultra setting with newer title, I'm afraid that $780 wouldn't enable you to get all of that,
but, hey, at least check this list http://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/zRjwgL
you can salvage the storage drives, and psu anyway. And if you already have a decent CPU cooler, then maybe you can cut the cooler budget, and move that to ramp up the GPU.

GTX 1060 would be a better choice.


But, neither 980ti or 1060 nor RX480 are lower than $300 in Australia. At least I check that from pcpartpicker Australia.
$300 for GPU, in a $780 budget, and the rest is history. Can't even get a decent overclockable CPU & motherboard.

abit over budget, but:

PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant

CPU: Intel Xeon E3-1231 V3 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor  ($365.00 @ CPL Online) since you're doing games design, the extra threads will help.

Memory: Corsair 8GB (1 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory  ($36.00 @ CPL Online) reuse the other 8gb of ram you alr have.
Video Card: Gigabyte Radeon RX 470 4GB G1 Gaming Video Card  ($329.00 @ PCCaseGear) spend a little more for the rx 480/gtx 1060 if possible.
Total: $799.00
Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available
Generated by PCPartPicker 2016-09-19 23:12 AEST+1000

sell off your old cpu+mobo+GPU to spend on better graphics card if possible.

From what point of view?

980Ti simply crushes 1060 in performance.

980 ti in australian dollars is horrendous, thats why he suggested the 1060

 

it costs ike $649 aussie dollars

Depending on your workload spending half of your budget on a GPU might not be such a bad choice. By the way what's your current GPU? Maybe you could upgrade your mobo and CPU, while still using your old GPU and then upgrade also that.

Price per performance maybe?

That's simply ridiculous...

Got mine for $360 few months back, USD of course.

But still there's no way to fit high end GPU in that budget anyway.

Should i downgrade one cpu for the 6500 its still 4 core at around 3.2 ghz for around 50 dollars cheaper

If you can afford it why not get the Xeon, it will help in case you need the extra threads.
