So I plan to play at 1080p/1440p(down the line like next year or something). I've got my i3-6100 and plan to overclock this but I need a gpu to go with it. Would an Rx 480 or 1060 work. I know this sounds crazy but would a 980 be good aswell?

Apparently a 980 is more powerful than 1060 so should I choose this?

i3 6100 with a gtx 1060 or RX480 would be great for gaming at 60hz. I wouldn't buy the 980 (even if it was a bit better) simply because its older tech and has fewer GB of VRAM

Agreed.

 

If you can find an RX 480 for even $230 and grab a 4GB model, do that. You won't be disappointed.
