its fine, but you don't need the heatsink, just use the stock cooler since you won't be able to overclock. if you want one for looks, just get the cryorig m9i instead and focus the budget on something else.

what part time jobs? i've been earning PC money by selling old pcs on carousell. you can also get your games off humble bundle/bundlestars/indiegala/etc. very cheap bundles; prices range from $1 to $15 USD, and the money(some of it, anyway) goes to charity.

Speaking of games, THE CREW IS FREE ON UPLAY!

Yep! I'd say the same if you really want those deals.

Yup. I played LoL at high (okay maybe that doesn't really push the GPU as much as AAA titles) and temps rose to around 50 C. With a stock cooler. At most just get an extra fan and play in a cool, well-ventilated room?

Dayum, I'm inclined to get the zotac GTX 1060 mini 3GB or the palit GTX 1060 3GB... Alas, waiting for pay-day.  

Well, the argument is, for an extra 20 or so dollars, you can get a bump in about 0.5 GHz clock speed vs a 6500 to 6600 jump which has a bigger price difference but smaller clock speed increment. TechDeals talked about that in one of their videos.
