Very decent gaming build. You could skimp on the case and memory and get the 6600k. This with your psu, keyboard&mouse, and wireless adapter.

I would get the 1060 3gb but it has a different architecture and is quite slower. Now as for getting the 6600K, I took your advice and am very pleased with the results. I'd love to show you guys but I don't know how to. If you could please tell me that'd be really helpful.
