This would suit you for the next few years. Leaves room for another video card in the future.

i like the first one alot but I would probably change the case out, something aboiut having a white or non-black case just kinda makes it stick out more to me

If you're buying in 3 months it's best to post then, new stuff releases and prices change everyday

Same price and it overclocks like hell.

With the budget you have... Everyone is basically going to say get a GTX 980Ti. If you look at my build i have the SEAHAWK from MSI/CORSAIR.

Now if you are strictly gaming you can do a 6600k and that is overclockable. Otherwise a i7 6700k obviously is the better choice of the 2 and is normally 349.99 vs 269.99.

As for the Motherboard, you pick something with Z170 and your choice, either ATX, MaTX or ITX. The choose the better component mobo which depends if you are going to OC or not.

There is a lot of options and like most say... Wait 2 months and see whats new then, then you can repost.

Here is a build you wouldn't OC cause the CPU isnt unlock, however you could spend $50 more for the K model:
