Help with building a new gaming pc

Hello! I am new here, but figured it was the perfect place to get some help.

 

I am in the process of buying new pc parts. I have a old gaming pc that I am going to use the case (coolmaster), ssd, hhd and dvd from. 

 

I am planing of buying the following:
- ASUS GeForce GTX 1060 DUAL OC - 6GB
- Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo CPU
- Corsair CX650M - 650 Watt - 120 mm - 80 Plus Bronze certified
- Intel Core i5-6600K Skylake CPU - 3.5 GHz - Intel LGA1151 - 4 cores- Intel Boxed
- Kingston ValueRAM SO DDR4-2133 SC - 8GB
- MSI Z170-A PRO - Intel Z170 - Intel LGA1151 socket - DDR4 RAM - ATX

I am not very good at this, so I have the following questions:
1 - I am looking for a gaming pc that I can affort. The parts above is my max cost. Is there something you would do different?
2 - Does the parts above "fit" together? Is there any problems with them I should be aware of?

3 - Should I buy all new instead? Or should I be fine combining my the old parts with the new? The case, hhd and dvd is about 5 years old, and the ssd is under a year old.
4 - Am i missing something? Or is that all the parts I need?

I really appreciate any help, and sorry for my broken English...

First off that RAM won't work, it's SO-dim. You need the full sized DDR4.

Question: What resolution do you plan to play at 1080p?

Ok so i found a Intel Core i5-6600 Skylake CPU on the site I am planing on buying from. And it was a bit cheaper, and it comes with cpu cooling, so I can save that also.

About the motherboard, I get a lot of different motherboards when i search for a h110m, what shall I choose?
