Hello,
I was originally going to go with the gtx 1050 ti, but i was convinced to go for a 1060 instead, i currently have Rx-460 2GB, so i thought there wouldn't be that much of a performance boost.
anyways;

I was wondering if a gtx 1060 6gb would be "Limited" by the r3 1200?

Nope. R3 1200, even though its low end, is a great CPU and doesn't really hold any GPU back until you get past the 1070. There's a couple videos on youtube from JayzTwoCents, etc. that explain bottlenecking in further detail with benchmarks

What I'm doing is getting a 1200 and later upgrading to Zen 2 as am4 will be lasting until 2020
