I have no issues gaming with my computer (4690K + GTX 980ti + 16GB RAM).

But if you're building a new PC from scratch I would go with a Skylake build since it'll allow more upgrade room in the future.

Your build is reasonable, but a I5-6600K and a Z170 based motherboard would be better.
If you are buying used parts, ok, but for new parts, go current gen.
GTX980ti is still very good.

I would wait for the Ryzen Zen series from AMD in early 2017. I saw it preform and it was not in boost more and was doing great in in about 8 demos.
I think you would kick yourself in the pants if you built now not knowing what AMD was offering at lower prices. Supposedly top end is $400 less than Intel.

if on 1080p the gtx 1060 6 gb or RX 480 8 gb will be fine if you want higher fps look into the gtx 1070 or if the price is better go for the gtx 980 ti ( there about the same with the 1070 about 8% better
