The main problem I see is the 6700, 1151 MB, and 16GB DDR4 RAM are all adding LOTS of expense and will do pretty much zero regarding gaming performance compared to an 1150 setup with 4690k or 4790k and 8GB DDR3. You also don't need a 750w PSU for a 970. A decent 500w would suffice.

You also weren't exactly specif on the monitor spec, and the res and refresh matter a LOT. Basically were you to more sensibly configure all the parts I mentioned in the first paragraph, you could afford a 980 Ti, which would be MUCH more future ready for graphics intense games, or higher res/refresh.

If you re-post the list with all part prices you're seeing on each part (and monitor res/refresh), it would be a LOT easier to help reconfigure it though. It looks nice the way you typed it, just not informative enough.

Meh, 1150 with a 4690k or 4790k won't NEED upgrading until you're ready to replace the whole platform, that's my point, and you can get it a LOT cheaper, and in gaming, it performs just as well as Skylake with DDR4.

The res depends on how big a screen you have and how far away you'll be sitting from it, which is usually dictated by the room and seating. Will you be sitting close at a desk in a small room, or on a couch from a distance? Also, do you want the convenience of a display that can do everything (TV tuner included), or something JUST for gaming, internet, etc? Keep in mind TVs also have much better scalers built in should you want to go 4K, in which case you may have to play some games at say 1440p or 1080p.

Refresh depends mostly on what frame rate you are comfortable playing at, and how much you can afford on graphics power. Higher refresh when accompanied with powerful graphics means higher frame rates and smoother visuals. There's also response time. TN panel monitors have fastest response and least blur, but lowest quality graphics because they are mere 6 bit color depth. There's also input lag, the lower the better for online shooters. Mostly monitors are better at input lag, but anymore, it's not a given due to so many brands/models of monitors an TVs out there.

Lastly, there's G-Sync and Freesync, the latter of which uses existing Adaptive Sync and DisplayPort tech and is primarily for AMD GPUs, the former which uses Nvidia's proprietary hardware, costs considerably more, and is exclusively for Nvidia GPUs. Both are intended to offer frame syncing with no performance tradeoff, and work fairly well given the setup.
