A lot to change there. You don't have memory for instance. Add a bigger SSD. Don't pay so much for a 1060.

wouldn't a cooler master hyper 212 evo be better than what is in this build because of the price?

The 212 EVO is a pretty bad cooler, all things considered. The one in there is a good chunk better both in terms of cooling and noise.

You'll be able to overclock pretty well. Depending on your chip, you should hit 4.4-4.6 without problems.

Not really

 

You could even get a non-OC CPU and a GTX 1070 and it would give you better gaming capabilities.

 

(Depends on the game, ARMA III likes CPU more than graphics)

I mean yeah, those kinds of glitches aren't even caused by a bottleneck.
