Hello,
after years of desiring a new PC, to replace my fairly old one, I've managed to save funds for a new PC, and will likely buy one next month, but I've got some questions I'd like to ask before I [strike]purchase[/strike] build the new PC.

My first question is if the build I'm thinking of is good, or if not, which parts should be replaced.
Since I live in Germany, I'll be buying the parts from mindfactory.de, which is known to have the cheapest prices regarding computer parts.

A bit over a year ago, I bought an MSI GTX 970 for my current PC, hoping to use it in the new one that I would get in a few months, which I didn't, and have to date in my PC. I intend to use it in my new build.

The parts I've chosen:
Intel Core i7 6700K - 340€
16GB G.Skill RipJaws VKB DDR4-3200 DIMM CL16 Dual Kit - 100€
2000GB Seagate Desktop HDD - 70€
Corsair Carbide Series SPEC-03 - 60€
be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 3 - 70€
Asus Z170 Pro Gaming Intel Z170 So.1151 Dual Channel DDR4 ATX - 150€
550 Watt Corsair CS Series CS550M Modular 80+ Gold - 85 €
500GB Samsung 850 Evo 2.5" - 155€

I'm not particularly wealthy, but I'd like to invest some money into a PC that will last a lot of years, with an GPU upgrade in 2 years. Feel free to tell me if I should replace a part due to it not being worth it/too expensive.

The second question if I could install Windows 10 on my new PC and use the Windows 7 key that I've had on my current PC since I bought it. (I've upgraded to Windows 10 and still use the same key)

Answers are much appreciated, and I thank you for reading my questions.
Kind regards
