Is there a bottleneck?

[Fritos]

Hello there, I would like to know if there's any bottleneck in my setup and what should I upgrade next? 

CPU : I7 8700 3.2 GHZ
GPU : Geforce GTX 1060 6gb
MB : ASRock B365M PHANTOM GAMING 4
RAM : Kingston 8GB 2400MHz DDR4 x2
SSD : Silicon Power P34A80 1TB M.2 PCIe Gen3 x4 NVMe
SSD : Kingston A400 240GB
HDD : Random HDD 500GB
PSU : Chieftec ATX PSU ECO series GPE-700S
CASE : Ventum VT4V EVO TG ARGB
MONITOR : 144hz MSI Optix G24C4

 

Ohh and I have stock cpu cooler, that's the first thing I will upgrade, any suggestions?

Yes

It depends for which games you and play and at which resolution

Regardless of what game you play though, even if you don'y game at all, I would get 8 more gb of ram to get 16

gpu and cpu are very well chosen out good job!

Well right now I'm mostly playing rainbow six but I'm thinking to start playing RUST soon.

I would go with more ram, and at a higher speed. maybe go for 2 x 8gb at 3200mhz

those are heavily cpu dependent games, but they are also relatively easy to run, so if your computer is fine and running at your monitor's refresh rate there is no need to upgrade.

Only thing I would get is 8gb more of ram, assuming your ram is 4x2, not 8x2, sort of ambigous in post

Well I can't really do that without changing the motherboard, it supports max 2666MHz ram sticks

Then you have enough, I don't see any upgrade you need.
