hdd: ill probablly buy a new 500gb hard disk

You want to pair a K processor with a z170 chipset to support the unlocked multiplier for overclocking. That is what the K means. If you want to go with that motherboard, no reason to get the K cpu.

Hi,
The RAMs you have are most probably not suitable for Skylake. You'd need low voltage ones (DDR3L).
Consider selecting a DDR4 board and a DDR4 kit.

There are a few issues here.

First a 6600K is an unlocked chip (for overclocking) which you are paying more for. If you do not plan on overclocking, opt for the 6600 instead. The motherboard you have selected does not support overclocking anyway.

Second, Skylake does not officially support DDR3, it only supports DDR3-L and DDR4. Using DDR3 memory on a Skylake CPU may damage it.

thank you for your replies. So what do you think it's the best solution? should i buy than a i5 6600 and a ddr4 motherboard and will 8gb dd4 be enough? which motherboard do you guys recommend which is not too expensive but can do the job.

I think the best combination would be a i5 7400 cpu and a b250m motherboard. This combo performs similar to i5 6600 and will save some money which you can use for a 1tb HDD. Also you can go for Rx480 4gb, it performs very similar to Gtx1060 and performs better in games like Battlefield 1 for just about 185$.

Edit: Sorry my mistake, I thought you are yet to buy the GPU

Also i5 6600k doesn't come with a cpu cooler. And a good cpu cooler can cost 30$ or more.

I run 8GB on my machine and I haven't had any issue what so ever.

You can either go a 6600 with a B150 motherboard like you have right now, or as someone else mentioned pick up a 7400 or 7500 and change out that motherboard for a B250.

I'll probablly never use more than 200gb of space. I play only PlayerUnknown Battlegrounds and League of legends.

here. i found this one ASUS PRIME B250M-A, socket 1151, DDR4 it's not too expensive. will it be enough for i5 6600 and a gtx 1060?
