Not much of an upgrade path from a 7700k on the same platform, if any. If I were you I’d sell the cpu, motherboard & ram as a combo then buy a better cpu motherbord and ram ;)

Yes, I agree, it would be wiser to do. But I am on a tight low budget, and am using this pc for work, so I cant stay without pc. :(
Thought I could get some cpu with or without motherboard, and replace it.

Based on Google search, socket 1151, supports any cpu from 6700k-9900k.

Next I would need to change motherboard and RAM accordingly, but at this moment CPU is issue for me.

The socket does, but the chipsets don't, 6000 and 7000 series cpu's are supported by the same chipsets, 8000 and 9000 are supported by other chipsets.
The z170 chipset only supports up to 7700K.
