Firstly, go for Skylake. i5 6600k, 16GB DDR4 and a Z170 motherboard of equivalent price. Go for a WD Blue instead and put the savings into a bigger SSD. Use the savings from i7->i5 to get a GTX 1080.

Should get a Skylake, as it's newer and still good for a cheap price.

The powers supply can be upgraded if you have 10$ more: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015YEI8JG/ref=abs_brd_tag_dp?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER Rx850 from Corsair. (That's if you want a better power supply, but the evga isn't bad.)

Other than that its great!

i5 is fine for this moment, but I would not recommend it if computer is build for next 3 years. Some games already show i5 is not enough, like TW:Warhamer having much lower min fps with just an i5. Also, with Zen coming out at the end of the year, and DX12 (->multicore support) becoming more popular, Intel has already started promoting 6-8cores running Aots and beating an i5. i7 is a safer option unless an upgrade to 6-8 core is planned in the future

Main benefit of WD Black is slightly higher transfer speeds and longer warranty. As such you're better off going for either cheaper drives such as WD Blue or just straight up to more reliable drives such as WD Red or RE4.

If you're using professional applications you should still go for an i7 then.
