It's an excellent build. What will you be using it for?
my friend kept trying to talk me out of getting the 6700k because its an "editing cpu", is that true?
slightly different build :

i want to be playing games on ultra around 60+fps or on high. (preferably on ultra)
Your build will be great for what you want to do. While you don't absolutely need the 6700k, it's nice to have and usually overclocks better than the 6600k. It also has hyper threading which is better for multitasking, video editing, etc. Would also be a benefit for future games multi-threaded games. If you can afford it, I would get it.
