Thats acutally a pretty good price for a z-series board.  If you can't find a non z- series for significantly cheaper, I'd just stick with that.  In the future, if you decide you want to overclock, you have that option available.   

Power supplies usually come with enough power connectors for 2 pcie gpus and a couple of drives 

Desktop: i7-6700K / Asus Z170 S / H100i V2 / LPX 2400Mhz 16GB / 960 EVO 250GB / 2x 860 EVO 500GB / RM750i  / NZXT H440 XB271H + Z22n Monitors

Laptop: Thinkpad T450s / i7-5600U / 12GB / 860 EVO 500GB

could you please double-check

The PSU is fine. You have a Z170 motherboard with a locked CPU, to overclock you need a K SKU (I5 6600K). 

Please quote our replys so we get a notification and can reply easily. Never cheap out on a PSU, or I will come to watch the fireworks.

Done. Yes, it will work.

Yes, it's 2871 as in the year 2871. I traveled all this way, back in time, just to help you. And you thought your mama lied when she said you were special-_-

I would just buy a H170 or B150 motherboard instead to save on a feature you do not need.
