Hello everybody, Im an enthusiast gamer and I would like some help!

I already have

a 750w coolermaster power supply
cpu corsair liquid cooling
a msi gtx 970 OC 4gb
a coolermaster Full tower
SSD 250gb samsung 850 evo
I also have all the peripherals needed for gaming (Razer lycosa keyboard, razer mamba mouse, hyperX could II headset)

Im thinking about buying:
i7-6700k cpu (currently i have a 1st gen i7-930 at 2.8 which is bottlenecking my gpu)
msi z170a Mpower gaming titanium ATX motherboard (an old asus motherboard without even a PCIx16 3.0 for my card, currently using 2.0)
4x4 DDR4-3000 corsair vengeance (currently 16gb DDR3)
and a second used msi gtx 970 card for SLI (which is slightly better at game benchmarks than the gtx 1070 for only 150 euros)

Lastly I'm thinking about buying a benq zowie xl2411 TN 24' 144hz monitor(I choose this one against the asus vg248qe after some research) which is the cheapest I can find of the 144hz gaming monitors. Currently a have a cheap 60hz 23' dell ips monitor at 8ms which is not the best for gaming so im thinking of upgrading.

I would like this build to last and being able to play on ultra every game out there at FHD 1920x1080. I know that with this build i could buy a 27inch monitor, but they are expensive.
Also in the future, if needed, I would like to be able to OC my cpu.

What do you think guys? Any suggestions? I can spend around 1000 euros to upgrade my pc. I can get all the above for around that sum.
I have already researched enough about the parts so that I can present these to you! :)
Im sorry in advance for any mistakes in english (not my first language) or the parts (im not an expert)

Rather than going with Intel's Skylake i7-6700K CPU and Z170 chipset MoBo, instead go with Intel's newest Kaby Lake i7-7700K CPU and Z270 chipset MoBo.

Comparison between Intel's 6th gen and 7th gen CPUs too,

Yea, but I wouldnt pay more than 200€ for a motherboard, unless he needs very specific stuff.
The Z270 Extreme 4 is a good option.
