go for a mobo like this because its a waste to get a 6700k and a liquid cooler and not overclock it and u cant do that on a b150 board. just be aware that youll have to put the liquid cooler on the front of the case and not the top.

i would say if it is only for gaming drop down to a 6600k or 6600 if you do not plan to over clock, also if you do not plan to overclock the cooler is a little overkill i would also drop down to a h60 even with overclocking it would still work i would also agree with going for a 170 series mobo z if you are overclocking and h if not
