I am using a 1600 with 1060 6GB. Check my signature. No bottlenecks whatsoever. In fact, R5 1600 is a very powerful CPU with 6C/12T and will probably serve me well for the next 2 mid range graphics card upgrades. Go with it. Godspeed!
That's a 6 core 12 threaded CPU, no way. If you are looking for very high FPS and play under 2K(1440p) then you may think about using Intel over the 1600. Otherwise the 1600 is a fine CPU.
