Building new Budget machine ~600$

[Grom]

Hey everyone please let me know what you think about the following components. This is only the essentials, CPU, mobo, GPU, and memory.

Anything underperforming/overperforming?

Anything that I could replace for a better deal? Money is tight. I'm looking for a great price-performance ratio. If there is a place here I could save money and not notice much of a performance hit I am open to that. I am already at my maximum price.

CPU 254.99

Intel Boxed Core I5-6600K 3.50 GHz, 6 M Processor Cache 6 for LGA 1151 (BX80662I56600K)

Mobo 114.99

Gigabyte LGA 1151 Z170 HDMI 2-Way CrossFire ATX DDR4 Motherboards GA-Z170-HD3

GPU 159.99

Asus GeForce 2GB 128-Bit GDDR5 Graphics Cards (STRIX-GTX950-DC2OC-2GD5-GAMING)

Memory 68.80

Corsair Vengeance LPX 8GB (1x8GB) DDR4 DRAM 2666MHz (PC4-21300) C16 Memory Kit - Black (CMK8GX4M1A2666C16)

I am using my existing case/power supply. Thanks in advance for all of your worthwhile advice. I am very open to critique here.

With the second option I'm scaling back everything but the GPU. This limits me to DDR3.

Also, I meant to add, anyone see any compatibility problems?
