Custom Gaming Build

[WindowLickerAU]

Hi
Recently my sorta shitty PC finally killed itself and I've been planning a new build. The specs so far are:

CPU: Intel i5 6600k (Gonna OC)
GPU: GIGABYTE GTX 970 Xtreme
Motherboard: MSI H170 Gaming Pro
Case: Cooler Master MasterBox 5 (mid tower)
Ram: Corsair Vengeance LPX CMK16GX4M2A2400C16 16GB (2x8GB) 2400MHz DDR4
PSU: Corsair CX750M Bronze 750W

I have two questions.

1. Does this build seem like a good one?
2. If I'm going to be playing games like Witcher III, Fallout 4 etc and overclocking the CPU, will i need to get liquid cooling and if so whats a good cooler?

Thanks in advanced

What's your budget? I can put together a much better one (for example, you want to overclock but your motherboard does not support overclocking so..)

Well adding a $130 cooler and System Assembly (around $100) it comes to about $1830 AU and that is about pushing it. It was meant to be around $1500 but well I'm bad at spending i guess, so budget is tight af.

You need a Z170 board for overclocking. Psu is not good, there are usually better in that price range like the 750w evga b2.

Sweeeet thanks so much

 

[WindowLickerAU]

Thanks both of you for all your help.

The RX 480 should be a decent choice(when fixed) but i suggest waiting for the aftermarket cards and avoid the reference cards.

there is just one little issue, im not 100% confident in building a pc myself. You could probably guess my my old specs that i picked I'm not the brightest when it comes to PC parts. I've never built a pc or anything that comes close to it, thats why im paying for the assembly labor. I'd rather not mess up and risk ruining parts but i mean if i can get the parts cheaper and no assembly labor is it worth it?

*Centecom is cheaper but the only 'K' intel cpu you can get online is too expensive thats why im ordering from scorptec even though they are overpriced.
