I have been working on a gaming\streaming PC for a while now, here's what I have so far

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/TwQQcc

at first I was gonna go with i5 6600k because I heard it was good for gaming and it was overclock able correct?

but after the entire build was done I was over my price range bye a bit. I need a i5 that is overclock able and is cheaper then i5 6600 and the k. also it must be compatible with what I already have. please help

you won't be able to overclock with that mobo. what's your budget? since you're doing streaming an i7 would be better.

You linked the x58 sniper rather than the b150 one.

in the first place that's an old x58 motherboard, why link that? also, that chipset can overclock.

alright I'm just confussed. so the x58 motherboard can overclock but its older.

what's your budget? maybe we can make something better suited for you.

750$ and my theme is (green\black\white\grey)

 

if you're fine with not having your theme, this will be much better for your needs.
