This is extremely unbalanced for a gaming rig. The GPU won't even properly run modern triple-A games while the CPU will sit there fiddling its thumbs. You're also getting an unlocked CPU with a motherboard that doesn't support overclocking.

Get a 480GB OCZ Trion SSD instead of 1TB 850 Evo, get an i5 6600k with a Z170 motherboard (recommend MSI Krait and above), and get a much better GPU (R9 380X - R9 390X). For the PSU you can get an EVGA 750B2.

Just because something "is better" doesn't mean sacrificing other things for it is better. With this rig you wouldn't be able to play modern triple-A games (Witcher 3, GTA V, Battlefield 4, Battlefront etc.) because while you'd have a great CPU your GPU would be useless by today's standards.
