Hello everyone so this is my current setup.
GPU:GTX 1060 3GB
CPU:I3 6098P
PSU:CORSAIR VS550 80 plus bronze
RAM:HYPER X FURY 8GB 2133MHZ
CASE:AEROCOOL BATTLEHAWK 
MOBO:H110M DS-2(GIGABYTE)
HDD:SEAGATE BARRACUDA 1TB

and i want to upgrade some of my components.(My budget is around 550$)

These are the components i want to buy

CPU:Intel Core i5 8400 2.8ghz

PSU:Corsair RMX650 80 plus gold

CASE:NZXT S340 ELITE

MOBO:I want your help here guys because i have no idea what mobo should i buy for the 8400.
 
I am between these 4, MSI Z370 PC Pro,MSI Z370-A Pro,Asrock Z370 Pro4,Gigabyte Z370P D3 (rev. 1.0) If you have any other suggestions please tell me.

So what do you think of this build,is it good enough to run the majority of the games at 60 fps on high settings and the most important thing,Is it future proof?

P.s What would you change in this build?(For example do you have any other suggestions on the Psu or Cpu?)

Thank you

P.S2 Sorry for bad english i am from Greece.

You'll probably need to buy new RAM, but that may be DDR4, I'm not sure.

I'd personally go with a Ryzen 5 1600, along with (obviously) a motherboard and RAM for it.

Edit- I`ve got the exact same thing

From that budgeting standpoint I think it's a waste to go from your functional Skylake Mobo to Coffee Lake mobo, why not just get an i5-6500 (non-k because of your board obviously)?  That makes for a fine quad-core upgrade that can handle modern games titles with ease (as Coffee Lake's IPC aren't that much better than a good Skylake i5).  Also since you're not getting a new GPU in that list, why the new PSU?  Unless your current one has awful coil-whine or has damage, you should be fine with your current PSU.

 

Save your money OP, and with that case upgrade get an SSD as well to boost your OS and essential files.  If budget is left over, maybe look at getting more RAM if you heavily-multitask but otherwise 8GB is fine for games right now (if you're not streaming at the same time, or running Photoshop under heavy load).

i agree tbh, what i posted was if he wanted to get on a new platform, me not realizing he`s on skylake. he`s got a nice budget so he could even buy an i7 6700 orso

But is My current mobo suitable for the i7 6700?

But the new i5's come with 6 cores 6 threads instead of 4/4 so thats why i was planning to get an i5 8400 or smth.And no i dont do photoshop or livestreaming so thats why i am not planning  to upgrade my ram any time soon.Now for the Psu i've heard that under heavy load this Psu is going to damage my Components and i dont want this to happen so thats why i want to buy a new one.You know just to be safe.

the cheapest Z370 board will do for the 8400, since you can't oc it anyways. go for the 8400, i7 6/700 are a pretty bad value now. i'd look for a phanteks P400 TG or fractal Define/Meshify C instead of the S340 Elite.
