If i'm going to use GTX 1060 6GB on 1080p 60hz monitor which one of these bundles are the best for it? keep in mind im limited by budget so i want the best for the price as it wont bottleneck my gpu + if im going to upgrade later i will actually sell the whole PC and buy new one, so ye im not looking for upgradable bundle.
I will be gaming only.

i5 7500 + B250M Gaming 3 or GA-H110M + DDR4 8GB ram
i5 7400 + B250M Gaming 3 or GA-H110M + DDR4 8GB ram
i5 6500 + B250M Gaming 3 or GA-H110M + DDR4 8GB ram
i5 4460 + GA-P81 + DDR3 8GB RAM
Ryzen 1500X + B350-PLUS

Benq 6ms 22inch monitor 1080p (cheapest)
Asus 21.5inch 1ms monitor 1080p
Asus 24inch 1ms monitor 1080p

i just want to pick the best one for that graphics card, not really that over or that less.

just get the r5 1400 and the cheapest Asus monitor (Benq if you don't play fps games). the difference in cache doesn't really affect it if you overclock

if i wont overclock, its still better than the rest and wont bottleneck that gtx 1060 anyway?

why? would it bottleneck my gtx 1060 ?

No, it wouldn't bottleneck, but your getting a 4 core, 4 thread processor when for the same price you could get a 1600 which is 6 core 12 thread and overclockable.

 

Ontop of that, it's pretty likely if you get an AM4 motherboard, Ryzen 2 will be compatible with it, whereas Z270 is dead and Cannonlake won't be using it, so you have pretty crappy upgrade options if you go with the i5.

 

Get a 1600, you won't be dissapointed. 2 extra cores and 8 extra threads, way better dude.

no, not even a current i3 would, when you get to r5/i5 range you should be at 100% utilization on both

Pretty wrong, if you look at benchmarks for the 1600 you'll see it barely gets to 70% usage in alot of games while still maintaining the performance of an i5

The 1500X at stock trades blows with a I5 7500 heck even a OC Ryzen 1300X can meet up with a I5 7500. I'd get the Ryzen 5 1500X build OC it to 3.8Ghz on the stock cooler and be happy. 

 

Also you will be buying into a new platform(which will support newer CPUs to 2020) with newer DDR4 memory what matter what don't get the 4460 combo over that reason alone.

well, that makes me go with the cheaper option then which is the i5, thanks bro.

really advise against this, they perform the same in games.

 Get the ryzen 5 1400 if your budget is really tight; it's got 4 extra threads and it's overclockable + comes with a cooler. It's also cheaper than an i5 7400.

It's pretty agreed upon that i5's are a pretty crappy buy, they perform the same in games as Ryzen yet they remain the same price (or more expensive) with less cores / threads and some aren't overclockable
