This is my first build and I have a budget of 1000-1100$. I was thinking the i5 6600k and the gtx 1060. I will be using it mostly for gaming and some school work. Is this cpu/gpu a good choice for my budget and needs? Thank you.

I haven't picked out any of my parts yet. I thought it would be smart to pick the cpu and gpu first. So should I pick out the rest of my components before I pick out my cpu/gpu? Thanks.
P.S. sorry for being a noob :)
 
for 1110$ I give you a 7500 + 1070
