Cheaper motherboard, cheaper case. Changed some parts like the cooler and power supply.

Thanks 

You could cut costs by not buying the 1tb Hard Drive now and just getting buy with the 250gb SSD and then you could upgrade in a month or few when you get money.

Here are my recommendation:

  • I generally lean toward the Asus Z170-A or EVGA Z170 motherboards due to their no frills feature set and rock solid stability.  When looking at a more expensive motherboard justify if you really need the extras (i.e. WiFi, aesthetics, etc).
  • As for the cooler my recommendations would be a Noctua NH-U14S as it's a great overclocker and has a high quality Noctua fan.
  • As for the PSU I generally recommend around 650-750W 80Plus Gold as a sweet spot to give you plenty of power with some expandibility later on.  Also this the part that does't fluctuate so it's good to future proof.  Corsair, EVGA Supernova, Seasonic are all great.  I've seen the EVGA GS being discouraged on the forums.

Everything else looks good.

You cannot overclock an unlocked CPU such as the i5 6600K on a H110 motherboard. Only Z170 motherboards possess that ability.

Such a high wattage is not necessary, and Seasonic PSU are shit, in a german forum i have only heard bad things about them and no one recommended them.

Yeah the wattage is a high but for future proofing you would save.  PSU can last you through many builds and the price doesn't fluctuate much over time.  As for Seasonic I've had a two that never failed on me.  The PSU I'm using now which is a Corsair HX1000i is made by Seasonic.  There are only a few PSU manufactuers such as Seasonic, FSP, Superflower, etc.  The major bands just rebadge them and add their tweaks (i.e. aesthetics, acoustics, digital modules, etc.)
