New Desktop for gaming

Hey guys, I'm looking to buy my second PC from PC Specialist and wanted a little help from people who know a lot more than I do!

A little about what I play, mainly WoW, H1Z1, Battlefront and a little Pro Evo.

I have a budget of about £1000. I messed with the spec of a new PC a bit, but dont really know whether or not the parts I selected would work well together, and also whether or not the particular system would be 'bottlenecked' (I have a lose understanding of what this means).

Could anyone have a look and tell me how it looks?

Processor - Intel Core i5 Quad Core i5-6600K 3.5GHz 6MB cache
Motherboard - ASUS Z170-E: ATX, LG1151, USB 3.1, SATA 6GBs
Memory - 32GB HyperX Fury DDR4 2133MHz (4x8GB)
Graphics Card - 4GB NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 960 - 2 x DVI, HDMI, DP - 3D Vision Ready
Hard disk - 240GB Kingston V300 2.5" SSD, SATA 6GB (I have a 1TB external too)
Power Supply - CORSAIR 650W VS SERIES
Cooling - CoolerMaster Hyper 212 EVO (120mm) Fan CPU Cooler
Fan Controller - NZXT GRID+ V2 Fan Controller with up to 5 Fitted Case Fans

Thanks a bunch to anyone who has a read!

You probably do not need the 'K' Series processor unless overclocking,
you can get away with the cheaper mobo unless you nee USb 3.1,
I think 32Gb is overkill, 8Gb is enough for most gaming,
V300 SSD's have had performance issues, go for another,
I prefer the CS series PSU's, they are modular and quieter,
Do you really need a fan controller?
If you can, go for the GTX 970 card, much better for gaming
