That motherboard you paired isn't going to make the 6600k worth it, so I swapped the 6600k for a 7500, took out the CPU cooler to save money, swapped to a B250 board that has support for DDR4, put DDR4 in it, swapped the GPU to save money, you can swap that back if you want to for looks. Swapped the PSU to a lower output PSU that is ~1/2 the cost of the original.
