Mave3 is right bro... I would suggest the following...
CPU - i5 6500 or 6600 (not a lot of difference)
MOBO - Gigabyte Z170 HD3
Ram - Corsair Vengeance\G.Skill Trident X 2x4GB... (If u can manage then 2x8GB would be awesome)
GPU - Gigabyte GTX970 (If u can get a G1 gaming, all the better)
Casing - Gigabyte Luxo M10
PSU - Corsair VS 650
SSD - 128GB or 256GB Sandisk\Samsung\Corsair... For OS
HDD - 2TB Toshiba\Western Digital\Seagate...

This would be an awesome rig, Futureproof for atleast 3 Years.

Taha, you have no idea how different 960 and 970 are...
I had bought a G1 GTX 960, used it for 10 days, then exchanged it for a G1 GTX 970. The difference was astounding... massive.
Go for a 970... G1 if possible. Wait to buy the card if you dont have cash, use the builtin GPU of the board until then. But, buy a 970, it costs around 44-45k now.
