What kind of monitor do you intend on playing on (refresh rate and resolution are important here)? Do you want your desktop to be small for aesthetic reasons or portability reasons (this will affect my suggestion of case)?. do you require any particular colour scheme, side window to obverse your components, or anything like that?

To save some space you can opt out graphics card and use intel built in integrated graphics card. HD 530 from Skylake is fairly powerful.

Ok. I wasn't being serious I guess

144hz 1ms refresh rate. Monitor 

I Do not really Care about the color scheme or aesthetic. 

The Computer Is for Portability Since i Move around a lot.

I Do not. The only thing I need it for is loading Windows 10 to a SSD I guess. I Have heard you can load it with a USB stick but I Am not sure.

I actually Like that ITX Case. That will be in my Build Now.

1920x1080

24 inches is large enough.

lol i got you something better than a SSD i got you a M.2 drive (x5 faster than ssd)

 

and yes you can set the boot priority in the bios to usb and boot from there

 

I unintentionally gave this build a red orange and yellow theme to it lol (accept the case cuz thats when i realised :P)

the case is a bit smaller than your avarage mid towers, but its ideal as you have space to expand storage.

If you want the hardware im suggesting and the shiny phanteks case you could pay a lil more:

Note that it is its bigger brother for micro ATX cases

That is the build I would recommend for you. watercooled CPU and GPU for maximum overclocks and minimal temperatures, small minimalistic case with handles for easy potability and decent aesthetics (the case comes in a great many colours, so just pick whichever colour you like). Also, 1TB SSD storage to allow you to store every game as well as your OS on a single, fast SSD (rather than having to drop some on a slower HDD). i7 6700k and a watercooled GTX 1070 are going to be plenty for you to run 144hz at 1080p.

 

The only catch with this build right now is that the GPU is currently out of stock. I would suggest waiting for it to come back in stock, but if waiting isn't an option there is the Corsair/MSI Seahawk 1070 which is a watercooled 1070 as well, although its a few dollars more expensive and isn't quite as good as the EVGA one (although its still quite good).

You want to get z170 mobo so you can overclock your 6700k. Otherwise you are wasting your money on buying k-cpu.
