Please, please list all your specifications next time. So please do so. Also is the 'rtx1060' a typo for a gtx1060 or an rtx2060?

Your computer should be fine. It will not run into any problems but a mild bottleneck, not much though, only in specific games but you won't see a difference. But since you are going to upgrade your cpu it will be fine.

I would suggest running the DDU driver uninstaller (available here: https://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html ) before installing the drivers for the new graphics card as switching between nVidia and AMD cards can cause weird problems.....

The DDU tool fully removes all traces of the existing driver, allowing for a clean install of the new graphics card / driver.

Yes, I already know it, it will be a nice idea, thank you.
