You may downgrade the i5 6600 to i5 6500 (or even i5 6402P to save even more).

Stick with stock cooler for the initial build, if it gets too hot then only add a low profile 3rd party CPU cooler.

GTX1060 3GB is a good pick if you are on a tight budget (or RX470 4GB is fine too), you get roughly 90% of the performance of the full GTX1060 6GB specs at ~RM 300 lesser.
Intel Core i5 7400 - RM 841
ASRock B250 Pro 4 - RM 449
G.SKill Aegis 8GB DDR4 2400MHz RAM - RM 275
Palit GTX1060 6GB GDDR5 Dual - RM 1229
Seagate Barracuda 1TB HDD - RM 219
Superflower Leadex Silver 550W - RM 359
Tecware Edge - RM 149

Total: RM 3521 (ETECH price inclusive of GST)

Alternate build:
1. Older chipset mobo (H110/B150) with a 120GB SSD (or 240GB SSD if you downgrade the PSU too)
No mobo? No PSU? No casing? How to run this setup?  rclxub.gif
Budget?
*
Then, it's simple the 1060 become 3GB then you just get a normal MOBO worth below RM3xx and a power supply worth RM 3xx as well, should be OK as well.

3.5k is nowhere near enough to build anything of this sort..... its that far off.....

Drop the GPU into 1060 3GB Version
Get a 500W PSU (Power Supply)
8GB RAM

Should be enough.

400 is barely enough for the mobo... do you know how much those bits cost?? hmm.gif

approximate breakdown; (cheapest bits you can find + figs rounded down)

1)i5 7600k alone already hits rm1k+

2)z170 > rm400, z270 >rm600 (afaik thats the pricing for these overclock-able boards currently)
=so far mobo + proc already makan 1.4k++ (minimum)

3)240gb ssd is around rm300+ a piece.....
=1.4+300+300 = 2000

4)1050ti 700++
=2000+700 = 2700

5)8gb ram is more than rm240
=2940

6)psu 500w (lets just taker the cheapo hexa) = 200
=3140

Figure at this point isnt even a correct figure, actual prices for the parts above are slightly higher and we would still need a few bits
7)case
8)cooler

just trying to point out that the initial AND second build you suggested were impossible to say the least....  the third build is way cut down compared to the other 2.... ofc its possible BUT for tripple-A titles.... imo a 1050ti isnt really cutting it. since the request was for a gaming pc..... dumping money into the proc isnt a good idea, might as well drop the k-series processor and get a good 1060 (6gb if possible)
thats my 2 cents...  icon_rolleyes.gif

edit:
basically trying to say, you cannot get the k series with a 1060 or that amount of memory, you can only pick one of the three.....

[Personal preferences] i7 7700, 16gb hyperX RAM, good cooling as the games will be running 24/7 simultaneously, GPU not emphasized as I don't mind running games in low settings or will upgrade it in future. Asus motherboard is a must.

Got electrical short and then it died... tried everything from changing the sata ports, power cables...

Is 120gb sufficient?

Yes. If you are gaming, put the best games into that and your not favorite ones into the HDD. Most importantly, you can also get a new 250GB.
