Which one should I do??

Should I do i7 6700k with iGPU or i5 6600k with a GTX 750 or 950? Also I'm gonna buy a powerful GPU the year after. I can get the i5 6600k with the dedicated GPU for the same price as the i7 6700k with iGPU.

If you are just going to play games you might just want to get the i5 without a dedicated gpu. Then you will be $100 closer to getting a GPU that will provide some decent performance.

Depends on what you're using it for. Intel's iGPU is many times faster than it was years ago, but it can still only run most games at lowest or close to lowest graphical settings. The i7 would be noticeably more potent than the i5 for streaming, encoding, rendering and editing, but for gaming in general there's not a lot of difference, unless you're trying to get 120fps+.

Well I'm just wanting performance. I'm going to be playing games like beamng.drive but I'm going to use software like ableton live and such but that's not hat demanding as my current cpu(Celeron N2380) does it.

Either will be worlds different than your Celeron, but if you're gaming, you want a discrete GPU, period.

Well I'm probably going to buy a dedicated GPU the next year, and I think the HD 530 should hold me off because my current computer can handle the games that I own(they are not very demanding games)
