so my motherboard is broken. I'm buying a new one.

my budget for this upgrade is $900.

my current specs:
i5 6600 non k
212 evo
GTX 1070 Xtreme gaming.

I'm getting a new case: h440 blue and black.

and the motherboard I'm getting is a ASUS ROG Maximus hero IX.

1:now I wanted a mother board that had a lot of upgrade potential for the future maybe in 3 years I will swap in a 7700k and overclock add another 32gb of ram.

2:my question is should I buy the 7600k or 6700k or 7700k now? or should I wait till I will really notice difference in performance.

3: or should I wait till intels 8th gen and go with that.

4: or, maybe, I should wait till ryzen and switch to the other team

I have though about this a lot and STILL don't really have an answer.
 
Solution
I would get a very basic motherboard, B150 or H170, and not to do anything about CPU
wait for some real improvements in next 1 or 2 years.
