* I am having trouble deciding which graphics to get as people say they are equal in performance but AMD support their graphics cards for longer and the GTX 1060 performs better in DX11 whereas the RX 480 does better in DX12. I would like to keep my card for at least 3 years so what would be the better option future wise.

Build looks good to me all around. As for your RX 480 question, yes i would 100% agree with whoever told you the RX 480 would be the better card to keep for longer due to more VRAM, better optimisation at the moment with newer APIs that will hopefully gain more traction (Vulkan + DX12) and Radeon do indeed have a tendency to have better long term support for their cards across many years whereas Nvidia would move the card to the limited legacy updates in this time. Build looks very solid for 1080p 60 FPS in High/Ultra only thing i would look to next is grabbing 16GB RAM once you have the money (you can just buy another 2x4GB kit and run 4x4GB for 16GB). Hope this helps :)
