Hi all
I just want to mention that this is my first time building pc, and I don't know should i even build it now or wait for pascal gpus, so here are my questions:

1. Build now or save more for pascal because we are already in 2016 and people say like Q1, Q2 is final period and timings, just when I was looking infos about new pascal cards, they was like so bether than maxwell ones (will that change be noticable in 1080p gaming like pascal vs gtx 970)

2. Buy now skylake processor with z170 or wait for skylake s, because people say dont waste money now wait some more skylake s will have 50 % bether performance with pascal then nowdays one.

I hope u guys can answer me, Thanks.

ok, this comes down to personal opinion. my opinion would be to wait for pascal(assuming it does not get delayed).
now for the cpu i wouldnt wait for the next gen of cpu's unless your going to wait for kabby lake(i think thats the name)/possibly zen or even broadwell-E. any quality intel 4790k/5820k/6700k will do just fine. but if your waiting to get a graphics card, i would wait till the release of pascal to purchase the cpu and see what news/other info is out there about them and that will help you pick out what you want.
