Thanks for the extended suggestions

I've checked what you mentioned about the i7 6700, and indeed it may be better since it supports DDR4 ram as you say. And about the price, the i7 6700 is cheaper than the i7 4790K (?).

About the motherboard, I've found in the shop I plan to buy it the

ASUS Z170 PRO GAMING, socket 1151 , which supports DDR4 RAM?

And about RAM , I've found the Corsair 16 GB DDR4-2133 Kit, I assume that would fit?

I would say that is all correct, in my opinion, no need to have a custom cooler unless you are overclocking.

You can never go wrong with Asus mobos, again, the Corsair RAM is fairly decent and you will most definitely have more than enough, however, GPU-wise, I think you should wait a little longer for Nvidia's Pascal GPU's or AMD Polaris GPU's. They will run at little power consumption and be quite a bit faster.
