I'm having a slight dilemma as to whether to buy the GTX 1060 6GB or 3GB or the GTX 1050ti 4GB. Can anyone help me decide between these three GPUs?

Thank you in advance!

At what FPS and resolution, that would help :p

Also, what is the rest of your build?

If possible at the highest settings ^^

Also the rest of my build that i'm thinking of right now is:
- i5 6500 cpu
- msi B150M mobo
- gtx 1060 or 1050ti
- 8gb ram (2x4)
- evga 600B psu
- adata 240gb ssd
- WD 1TB hdd

Also i was thinking as a cutback of some of the costs whether its better to get the i3 6100 cpu. Would that be useful considering the new games that are going to come out in the near future?

That's what I would recommend for top-end 1080p Gaming on a reasonable budget. I would recommend staying away from the i3 unless you're on a really tight budget.

Well the i5 has an extra 2 real cores, so the performance gain will theoretically be double, although its probably more 25% due to the hyperthreading (This isn't 100% true, just theoretically speaking) for the extra 80$ it is worth it. I am hoping it is within budget, but that build will be great, and you'll be able to play all, if not most games on maximum settings, some with settings lowered, but it will run some great benchmarks and have some great performance for what you're needing.
