Edited version of your part list. Just some recommendations to bring the price down a little while still maintaining the close to the performance area yeh want.

Some people prefer a challenge, I just band my head against a wall until my method works...

Neither the H80 or H60 is good enough to handle 8600k or 8700k when overclocked. Either those huge air coolers (NH-D15, Dark Rock Pro 3 etc), or 240mm AIOs like the H100i v2

if i went with the i5 what would be the best option for cooling, i’d like to get an ok overclock but i don’t like the look of a big air cooler, so i’m thinking probably an aio

Looks like your current case doesn't support more than a single 120 or 140mm rad or most tall air coolers so you'll need to swap that out most likely.

Swap that thing for the Prime-A. The Strix-H is crap. 

Good to know. I didn't look at the board too in depth when making changes to OP's build so I left it.
