I have this build in my mind and this is my first ever build.

I settled with i5 since gaming is what I do and lots of people that I know suggested it. I wanna OC it aswell.
What do you guys think about this build? Willing to listen for better parts suggestion.

It won't be stable or will be hot if you go further

ooh it can go further? Im happy with 4.2 if its not gonna hurt my proce in the long run. Main reason why I picked 67-k is because of 4.2 OC anyway. Anyway you're awesome sir. You replied on my other post aswell Thankyou.

You can switch RX 480 with GTX 1060 if you want by spending 20-30$ extra.

Actually 6700k is 40$ cheaper than 7700k which I think is not worth like its ok if its 15-25$ more but 40$! Then 6700k is the best bet you can really get a lot better performance than 7600k and it should be good for some content creation too. If you want you can switch RX 480 with GTX 1060 if you want.

Well 6700k is skylake but still is really good. Its OC capabilities are not bad either its really good. Your budget is around 1000$ and you made a list with i5 saying that you are into gaming but games are starting to utilise those extra 4 threads nowadays, so i7 is more future proof and still you are getting the same GPU. I mean I gave RX 480 but if you want go with GTX 1060. You can upgrade to kaby lake cpu which I say is not really worth as 6700k is still packing some serious power. You can get good OC with Corsair H60.
