Hi, so i want to upgrade from my old GeForce GTX 760 2GB to a brand new GTX 1060 6GB ( I don't know from wich company yet.) But i don't know i there could be a bottleneck between my CPU AMD A8-6600K Richland 3.9GHz and the card. I would be very thankfull if somebody who could possibly know about it answer me.

My pc specs:

CPU: AMD A8-6600K Richland 3.9GHz
GPU: MSI GeForce GTX 760 2GB Gaming (N760 TF 2GD5/OC)
MOBO: GA-F2A78M-DS2 (rev. 3.0)
RAM: 8GB 1600Mhz 2x4GB (Crucial Ballistix - Dual Channel, with heatsink
PSU:Corsair VS Series VS650
CASE: Sharkoon BD28
 
Solution
there will be a bottleneck.
1060 will definitely improve your gaming performance, but if you don't plan to upgrade the CPU anytime soon (within a year) you might be better with a simpler GPU like 1050ti or may be RX 470

Thank you very much about your answer. I was planning to also upgrade the CPU, but my budget is the limit. I will earn the money and upgrade the CPU too. My biggest problem is the GPU for now.
