It will be used for gaming, schoolwork, and possibly some video editing in the future.
I plan on adding a GTX 1080 once those become available.
A monitor is not necessary but if I could somehow make room to buy a good one that would be nice.
I only want air cooling.
My budget is generally around $1500 but I can go up to $2100 (although I would to save as much as possible)
My question (other than what can be improved upon currently) is how much of a difference would a i5 6600k make from th i7 6700k as well as the GTX 1070 and the GTX 1080? I would like this build to have the future in mind.
