Hey.

Im currently looking at these specs... My main needs go with high end gaming, 3d rendering (Maya and MAX), Game development (Unreal Engine 4)

1) Intel Core i7 6700K (Unlocked)
2) Corsair CC-9011050-WW Carbide Series SPEC-01
3) Gigabyte G1 Gaming GA - Z170X - Gaming5
4) DDR4 Kingston HyperX Fury 8gb (x3) = 24gb
5) Gigabyte Geforce GTX 1060 (6gb)
6) Corsair Cx600 (600W PSU)
7) Cooler Master Hyper 103

Im totally confused with my mobo and gpu! The asus z170 pro gaming or the gigabyte and the asus gtx 1060 or gigabyte's gtx 1060?

Appreciate the help!
Thanks in adv

I'd go the Pro Gaming mobo, on the GPU either will be fine (I lean to the Asus), Think DRAM may be an Issue either go 16 or 32GB (in 2x8GB or 2x16GB and buy as a set). Individual sticks may be better pricewise, but there are no guarantees they will play nice (yes, even if all are the same exact model). Getting a set ensures they have been tested to play nice - see my article items 2 and 6:
