you are probably better off building around the i3-6100 for not much more and wind up with a much better upgrade path,. That motherbd doesn't officially even support the 860k which I was going to suggest you use instead since you have a discrete GPU.

That mobo does support 860k, but otherwise I agree.

Not a good PSU choice. Ram should be 2x8gb. GTX 950 is faster, and uses less power. This would be a much better system, all around, for less.
