[SOLVED] bottlenecking help/advice

[johnstevens33]

Hello everybody, i am building a gaming pc and was wondering whether one of my components is going to be bottlenecking the others.

i7-8700
16GB DDR4 RAM
1060 6GB
500GB SSD
2TB HDD

my budget will only allow for components that are $50-$100 more.
is it balanced for gaming?

In general, yes, especially for 1080p/60hz or esports 144z.
