If you get a processor with a K at the end get a Z board and for the 6700K Z170

If you are going to get a B150 motherboard, don't get an overclockable CPU. If you want an overclockable CPU you need the Z170 platform. Other than that, it looks great :) Oh, and you're probably fine with the included fans on the MasterCase.

yea it will work, maybe 2-4 more fans, also if you have OCD replace the fans on the Water cooler with the fans you want

Get a 6700K and Z170 mobo and cheap cooler

OR 6600K instead

 

WD Red's are NAS drives, get a Blue or Black

 

MasterCase is super expensive for this tier build...

Would i need 16 gb ram for overclocking or is 8 fine?

OCing and RAM aren't related. I'd say get 16GB anyway, especially if u use chrome
