Hey Shin. You have a pretty big budget and only need to spend a few hundred to get some good improvements. Since you've got a 1060 and a 144hz monitor, all you really need is a new CPU. Your current build is very solid and honestly, if you'd rather have a PS4 (sit and play, ease of use, etc.) go for it!

If you decide to upgrade your computer, I would look towards a Skylake CPU and overclocking it. You can use this link to get the BIOS you would need to flash and use on the below motherboard I've linked. Also, it includes basic instructions to get started on overclocking (this is a very easy overclock). http://overclocking.guide/gigabyte-z170-non-k-overclocking-guide/ All you need is a USB to flash the BIOS!

To dispel any misinformation, you do not need a K series CPU to overclock (Skylake exclusive). You can push the 6400 to levels on par with the 6600k.

Sorry breek ,actually i wanted a kaby lake not skylake .

Any specific reason? I can't think of any reason to go that direction when you can save ~$80 going Skylake non-k overclock.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hR7NXTLs1k This is only one example, but I would do some research on Kaby Lake performance differences. If you plan on doing productivity, I could see that being an option (if you opted for an i7 7700k). If it's going to be primarily gaming, overclocking the 6400 is the best bang for your buck, by far.
