New to PC gaming, well gaming in general, last thing I played was a Playstation 2. Currently running an Early 2008 iMac, which is torture..
I got his PC from an old office clearance sale and wondered just how much I could get out of it by bolting on the best compatible Graphics Card. Since I am a complete noob I humbly ask ye of the PCMR to assist me. Mainly looking to play MOBAs (LoL, DotA, Overwatch etc) and The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim Special Edition.
What should I get and what can I expect?

So I looked around a little and found an i5-3550S going cheap.
Would I be able to avoid significant bottlenecking if I installed the i5-3550S and an Asus GTX1060 Strix?
Or is this not worth it considering the motherboard?
Should I rather just purchase a pre-built?
