[SOLVED] Building gaming pc for dad, need input

[Stepsoft]

TLDR I'm surprising my dad who never treats himself by shipping him the parts for a new gaming pc but would love input (Especially on gpu).

1080p 60hz
Needs to last
Want him to experience max settings

My dad is the reason I was able to get into gaming and bought me my first gaming rig 10 years ago, as well as a decent one for himself. Because of taking care of our small family, he has never been able to upgrade and still plays on his fossil. Lately I've been able to save some money so I'm going to surprise him by shipping all the componants he needs to build a comp over the course of the next couple weeks. He plays 1080p 60hz, and likely wont upgrade, so I initially decided on a gtx1060, however, this system will need to last him as obviously he wont be able to put much money into it later, so I'm now torn about putting up the extra cash for a 1070 or 2060 for some longevity. He mostly plays WoW there days but also because his comp limits him. Would love to see his face if he loaded up kingdom come:deliverance for example.

This is what I've picked so far, would love input, hope I post this link correctly.

I guess mostly looking for opinions on the outlook of 1080p gaming with a gtx 1060. Or if anyone notices anything else wrong with the build

Looks like a solid build with a good PSU (a part I recommend people never cheap out on). As for the GPU if your going for longevity get the best one you can afford. I get he mostly plays WoW and it doesn't need to much horse power but I assume you want him to be able to buy and play any game he desires at high settings for as long as possible. I'd go with a GTX 1070/RTX 2060/Vega 56 range or performance if you can swing it...if you get lucky and hit the lottery I'd even go higher. Dad's need spoiling too!! LMk if I can be of any more assistance.

For a little bit more you can get a solid 1080P/1440P gaming system and this would include the GPU.
