The pc i have now is a i5 2500k on a non overclock able intel board. 16 gb of ddr 3 ram and a msi gtx 1060 GPU. The pc i'm about to buy parts for is as follows i7 6700k, Asus - Z170-E ATX LGA1151 MB, Kingston - HyperX Fury Black 8GB x2 with a unconfirmed hdd and i'm going to use my gtx 1060 as im only really after 1080 p for the moment. i have 2 questions....... will i noticed a great leap in gaming and general performance with or without overclocking the cpu and my second question is will this build with a better gpu be able to handle games really well for at least the next few years. any suggestions or tips are welcome :D also a recommended psu wattage please and is the 6700k a strong cpu ?? thanks guys
