I've been out of the market for awhile, but since you are doing video editing, the extra threads will make a difference (not so for games). According to a brief google search though it seems that if you try to OC with that H170 board it will disable HT on the 6700K turning it into a 6600K so I'd suggest swapping out for a Z170 board like one of these:

I'm partial to AsRock at the lower-end.
Or getting a non-K CPU and lose the aftermarket cooler.

Any particular reason you are spending so much for your RAM? I count 3 16GB kits all for around ~$73 available, half of what your set is going for:

What are you going to do for your storage subsystem? Graphics?

Apparently Intel is going to be launch Kabylake at CES (beginning of January) which should offer a bit more clockspeed headroom, hardware-based 10-bit HEVC decode support, and things like USB 3.1 and more PCI-E Lanes.

Not to mention it will drop prices somewhat on Skylake-class CPUs/mobos.

thx for your answer.

For storage I am fine, I have 3 TB of fast SSD and 1 TB ssd for things that have to run fast and I am connected to ~24 TB storage server via network.

for I5 6600K V.S. I7 6700K I also watched https://youtu.be/ArYrvLwaBaw and choose I7 6700K, since I will do lots of video and photography editing. I think this will be an advantage, 'cause I don't plan to overclock and still get the 4 ghz base and plan this pc to last 3-4 years in active service.

Regarding the RAM, i simply didn't find any cheaper at my local store:

I only found this in another store:

I'll look at the Z170 boards now, thx

Flight sims require a beefy processor more so than a beefy gpu (especially since they're all made by slavs so the graphics are shyte). Get dem cores boi

WRONG simulator.

>>57849200
If you buy a K cpu, buy a Z chipset. >>57849086
Assrock sucks, they killed my 6600k.
Prices never drop on Intel products
Skylake already has 3.1

>>57848894
Just buy a 5820k or 6800k. Essentially in the same price range, but with vastly better multi threaded performance. Which you can actually use with your workload.

>>57849200
look for M.2 NVME SSD
