That PC build is no good... don't buy it.
1) The CPU is fine but games these days CAN use hyper-threading.. People haven't caught up to this notion yet.. I'm not sure the difference in price point for the i7, but, I wouldn't buy an i5 these days unless I had no alternative. Check out an i7 Kaby or evenn Skylake instead. For the Skylake it's slightly slower single-threaded performance
per clock but you'll get 30% more performance multi-threaded.
2) The motherboard is
garbage. Pass. Only get a Z170 for reasons I'll make clear later.
3) Not sure why you'd want to get such a great processor and RAM that is so slow? You're literally getting JEDEC spec'd DIMMs while getting a CPU that can easily be overclocked. The price/GB here is important.. You could get faster RAM for your overclock and get real performance gains with negligible price increases.
4) Not sure why people are buying SATA based HDDs any more... ? The hard drive is the biggest bottleneck on the PC; so you want it to be the fastest component you can afford.. Don't go with 2.5" SATA disk, get an M.2 NVMe Samsung 960 Pro from Amazon. This is one of the bigger reasons to get the Z170 instead of the H-class since you'll have DMI 3.0 which means your HDD will have R/W speeds hitting the max bus speed of 3.6 GBytes/sec on certain workloads.... Thank me later.
And if you wanna save some money; get the 960 Evo.. wanna save some more money, get the 950 Pro... wanna save some more, get the 950 Evo... Don't buy a SATA disk unless it's for truly mass storage. I treat SATA disks these days like fucking tape backup.
5) The 1060 is a ripoff.. Do not buy this graphics card.. Never buy GFX cards in this class unless you're talking about a laptop.. Either spend the additional money on a new 1070 or buy a used 980 Ti.

That's $325 and will run circles around the $260 1060 you have here.
Still.. You'd be much better off with the 1070 and having no regrets for the additional $150... Skimp somewhere else; but not on the graphics card.
6) Do you use CDs?
7) Take this $100 for Windows out... I'll explain how you can get a
valid Windows license for about $15 instead of $100. I'm using a 100% genuine, auth'd Windows 10 Pro system and I paid $12 for the (dual) license. Can explain later.
