Here is my pcpart list... I want to know if its a good list and if my power supply is enough. Also if you have suggestions to change anything let me know... I will just be playing CSGO and recording/streaming. I also need to know how the quality difference will be from streaming and recording with the i7 6700k and the i5 6600k.

Solution
Very good overall build, Yes if you're streaming and recording the i7s extra threads do help in that regard over the i5, The GTX 1060 will hold its own in csgo fairly well even at maximum settings, Just asking are you going to overclock?

For that CPU I would go for the 6600K and upgrade that GPU to a GTX 1070... unless you will need the extra cpu power for something else then its fine

update: Never mind that build is great for what you need it for.
 
Here saved you some money and wont decrease performance and better PSU Wattage to fit the actual system needs.

For starters,why is that build so expensive for a 1060 and I7? I managed to change some things for the better. It looked like you were aiming for Black and Red. Si switched out the motherboard for a Aura Board with RGB and Red LED Ram Sticks. Along with a Asus Strix 1070 to sync the LEDS with everything. I heard that MSI has QC Issues so I'd stay away.
