I want to upgrade my pc, which i use mostly for gaming. The question is, what to upgrade first to ensure medium-high graphics with stable 60ish fps? I'm thinking CPU, since the GPU doesn't seem to be the weak link.
These are my parts http://pcpartpicker.com/list/RMHNcc
If i upgrade the CPU, should i go for the one of the most expensive ones? I'd like it to be "future proof" for at least about 5 years or so. The budget is around 500-600 euros.

Both of them are very week compared to whats on the market right now. 180 euros buys an i5 4690 on amazon. Then a gtx 1060 for the gpu for around 230 euros. Those will do perfect for 1080p an youll easily hit 60fps.

1060 seems like an awfully popular GPU, so i'll consider that. The processor i5-4690 seems superior to the one you recommended, i don't plan on overclocking, since that removes the warranty in the shop. 1060 and the 4690 fit my motherboard, should i change it anyway?
