I want to play recent and upcoming pc games at 1080p , ultra/high settings , 40-45 fps atleast .
For GPU i am going with gtx 1060 6gb . please suggest other components to go with it at minimum costs and least bottleneck . I do not overclock so no extra cost for overclocking potential . I will be using this pc for a year only so no extra cost for future proofing aswell .
Thanks and sry for my bad english .
