What can the GTX 1060 and Core I7 7700 run?

Just wondering also 7700 (non k)

All games at high-ultra where the gpu is the limiting factor, since the i7 could handle even a gtx 1080ti.

"X CPU can/can't handle X GPU" is misleading and not exactly true. The CPU acts as a varying FPS in different games. This cap can change throughout the game, however will not be reduced by decreasing resolution and most settings (excluding View distance, possible shadows, and physics). This FPS should be the same no matter the graphics card in play. I'd say an i7 7700 is good for <100FPS in modern AAA titles.

The GPU is more in charge of the resolution and graphics quality settings. For modern AAA games, I'd suggest 1080p at 60hz/FPS. It really depends on the game though, refer here: http://www.techspot.com/review/1393-radeon-rx-580-vs-geforce-gtx-1060/

Which games are you looking to play?

Most AAA ones including bf1 and GTA

At 1080p/60-75Hz you should be able to play everything (nearly) maxed out

The difference between the 7700 & 7700k is negligible
The 1060 doesn't struggle at 1080p (unless you're running 250% scaling or extrapolation or some of this crazy settings that makes little to no difference visually but instantly increase GPU load significantly)
