Taking into account that my motherboard is a

P6T WS Pro,

my GPU would be a

Quad-Core Intel Xeon X5687(3.60 GHz)

All I need now is to decide on my GPU, to play H1Z1 (without any bottlenecking), and for best performace (also taking into account of prices, which GPU would be best for me??

Yes, probably a GTX 1060 would be slightly bottlenecked.

No problems! Yes, i also thought about putting price as one of the bonuses of 970. Old cards that were beasts back in time tend to cost more than newer counter-parts that actually perform better. Yep, that's not that small difference (£30), I'd go for 970!

A GTX 960 is not a choice there. I would recommend a GTX 970 over 780ti. It has very similar performance to GTX 780Ti. http://www.game-debate.com/gpu/index.php?gid=2438&gid2=1920&compare=geforce-gtx-970-4gb-vs-geforce-gtx-780-ti

game-debate.com shows 780Ti is 4% faster than 970, but i would better choose 970, because:
GTX 970 has more VRAM (4GB vs 780Ti's 3GB; some games recommend more than 3GB of video memory for Ultra settings)
GTX 970 is newer, so it has better driver support
GTX 970 uses much less power. (145W vs 780Ti's 250W)

If you're planning to buy any of these cards new, i would recommend getting a GTX 1060 3GB or RX 480 4GB instead for much lower price.

I understand all of your points you have made of course. but considering i'm not buying a new pc, just replacing some parts, wouldn't make more sense to get a 970 (£140) over a 1060 (£200), I may be wrong of course though.

and the 1060 would also have a higher chance of bottlenecking?

Thanks

Thanks for the reply, you're right that it is fractions better (the 970), and considering that its £30 cheaper, it would also make sense to get the 970 over the 780Ti?
