1) Z serries boards are for overclock CPUs, otherwise shoudl be able to save a few dollars and get H serries board. If that is the k serres overclock CPU then you also need a cooler as they dont come with one
2) You need a 270 serries board not a 170 for a kabbylake CPU as the bios currently on the 170 board will not be compatible
3) Chieftec is a low tier garbage brand PSU, would hate to see this whole rig get fried due to a cheap PSU
4) Kingston's new generation of SSDs are not good (in reality their older generation stuff sucked too but their old hyper x was alright), should stick with samsung or crucial for newest generation stuff.
