what is the best CPU for gaming only
all I want to do is just basic things like weB browsing, gaming. My specs:

Gigabyte GA-Z170N-Gaming 5 Motherboard (Mini ITX)

Phanteks Enthoo Evolv ITX Mini-ITX

EVGA SuperNova G2 550 W Gold PSU




Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB RAM(2x8GB) DDR4

Samsung 850 EVO 250 GB SSD

1TB HARDDRIVE

GTX 1070





 
Solution
If you aren't going to overclock, then there is no point in getting a Z170 (mini-)ITX motherboard.

In terms of non-OC bang-per-buck, the i5-6500 or i5-6600 will be the best depending on pricing wherever you plan to get your parts from and there won't be much of a gaming performance difference in most cases.
