1060-3gb vs 1060-6gb

I am wondering which GPU to buy to pair with my i5-8400. I am wondering which GPU would be better to play most modern games at 1080p and stream at the same time?

the 1060 6gb is the way to go for sure, it will allow you to play most games at high/ultra detail 1080p@60fps no problem. it's a good card, not hot and the performance is where it needs to be. if you haven't got 16gb ram get it as it will make your gameplay smoother in a lot of games.

1060 6GB to insure you'll have no issue in playing @1080p or higher..

Ok, thank you for helping. I was wanting to get the 1060-3gb because it is more within my budget but if the 1060-6gb will make my gameplay better and smoother than I will go with that. I am wanting to play mainly fortnite and r6 and stream it.
