I am a pc enthusiast and I wanted to know if a system that I’m going to build will be bottlenecked.

my specs are 

gtx 1060

core i5 3470

8 gb ram ddr3 1600mhz

Welcome, I'm generalising however it's good enough for basic thinking.

 

It's usually ALWAYS a game to game basis to really find out... And then it will likely be win win win lose win.

 

Reasons.

If you had a GTX1080, the CPU may struggle with providing info and drawcalls fornultra +120fps updates.,.. yet the CPU may shine at Ultra settings right up to say 60-90fps, inbetween and such..

So then you know that while a 1080 may be overkill at the same settings, a 1060 is going to be within that 60-90 bracket and is a fine choice.

 

IMO you'll be fine mostly great.

When say a game uses more than 4 cores, and is lightweight, and you go balls deep fps wise.. It may stutter due to CPU 4cores HIGHFPS loads.

Up the details, set an fps cap to say 10fps below highaverages to save CPU trying to drive further.

 

Fixes exist, but you'll not likely need them until particular games require them.

Broadly.. Good to go.

Well other than swapping the gtx 1060 for an rx 580 it seems good

 

The gtx 1060 is quite overpriced in the current market due to end of Pascal. And the rx 580 is significantly cheaper and just as fast
