Should work fine but the 6700k is a bit overkill unless you plan on heavily multi-tasking or running servers.
Going with a i5 6500 could save you $100 and could use that towards a better GPU like a GTX1060 or RX480. Or save even more with a i5 6400.

And unless you plan on upgrading to Kabylake (intel 7th gen) or if you need the extra features the Z270 chipset brings you could save more by going with a Z170, H170, or B150 motherboard.

As it is it's an excellent build with plenty of room for upgrades in the future.
