That's a pretty decent setup. That mobo is also nice. What about the RAM, though? Did you forget about it or just not list it here?

Edit: And I would also recommend an M.2 SSD instead of the SATA one. M.2 ones are much faster.

The 1060 is more expensive and slower than 580.
Also heard pretty good things about the new B450 Steel series.
