New Year, New Upgrades!

[MrOldMC]

Previously I have posted on the forums about upgrading my system, specifically in September, however I did not get a clear response. I asked about upgrading my processor because I know how crap it is and that it is severely old, by the way it is a AMD Athlon 245 Dual Core. Back when I started getting into gaming I used a basic Dell PC and then upgraded the Power Supply, Graphics Card, and Case. However now that the new year has rolled around that now means that to base computer, so CPU, Motherboard, and Hard Drive will be 7 years old. So that is why I have come to one of the best tech forums around, to ask about suggestions for mainly a new CPU and motherboard because quite honestly my Geforce 660 is super bottlenecked by my exsisting Dual core. To get a basis for what I want, I am obviously going to be gaming but, I am also interested in streaming and video editing so the more cores the better. CPU's I have looked at so far consist of i5 4690, i5 6600, i7 4790, i7 6700, and i7 5820k. I am not all that interested in over clocking so the 'k' is not all that important, however if I have the budget I may just get a Cooler Master EVO 12, extra case fans, and a fan controller. That is because I am one of the few people who actually likes to change their fan speeds based on the task whether it would be for video rendering or gaming. In addition for the motherboard I am interested in a FULL SIZE ATX board that is SLI compatible for future upgrades. Lastly, my budget AT MOST is $1000 but preferably less, but I do not want to scimp on parts because I want this PC to last.

As a side note here is the PC parts picker list that one of the mods gave me. Personally, I think it is absolutely ridiculous for the processor because he suggested me a DUAL CORE!?!?!?

The dual core build would struggle . The cpu is not powerful enough and is obsolete . The graphics card also outdated
Going forward I'd suggest something like which uses the latest intel i5 and DDR4 RAM

Your thoughts are greatly appreciated and I understand that I can ramble on so I understand that some people may not want to read the whole thing but......I would like to ask if you could revise your list, I know that my graphics card is outdated however that is not my priority item to upgrade. Now I could be uneducated on the new Skylakes and I know they aren't even a year old however from my knowledge of the whole Intel listings of i3, i5, i7, and Xeon that i5's aren't exactly meant for video editing and rendering. In addition, do not need to build a completely new PC, I have a monitor, RAM, hard drive, 750 Watt supply, case, as I stated I am mainly concerned about the CPU, and motherboard upgrades, and IF I have the budget I would get a 970. This is a PC UPGRADE not a new PC build.

Thank you once again for your time.

i7 Skylake
more RAM [ which you will need since DDR3 RAM will not work ]
better motherboard

Ok thank you for the help it is greatly appreciated, your list is greatly appreciated and I thank you for your quick responses. Your list is 110% better than the list the previous guy gave me on my last upgrade post in September. Since I know quite I bit about PC's and building them, I knew that an i3 could not serve be well let alone it being a dual core, thankfully I am educated in PC parts and did not go for his crappy list.
