Hi guys,

I've had my computer for quite some time now. I bought it back in 2013, and it came with a Nvidia GTX 680, Intel 16GB RAM, Intel i5 3570K core, a 750W PSU and a MSI B75A-G43 motherboard.

I am thinking about to replace my GPU, as I would like to play the newest games, without my computer sweating. I've considered getting the Nvidia GTX 1060, it seems like a reasonable GPUmm, but I wonder if it really is worth the upgrade? I don't have a lot of money.. And will my computer bottleneck?

Your computer shouldn't bottleneck, you should got with RX 480 thou, it costs less and perform the same, it performs much better than GTX 1060 in Direct X 12 games that are coming out, so the future looks brither for RX 480, the GTX 1060 won't last you that long because it performs worse in DX 12.
