should i sacrifice for a better gpu?

Versti

i was planning to buy a 1050 ti to go with a ryzen 1700, but i feel like i need a better gpu, since im looking to become a streamer and looking to also record, so i need better fps,

but if i upgrade to a 1060 im gonna have to sacrifice some things to get it, because im on a budget, 

so should i sacrifice my 120gb ssd and the extra 2 fans that i was gonna buy, and instead get a "gigabyte gtx 1060 6gb oc" and a 68gb ssd,

im not sure if i should do it, because idk if 2 case fans will be enough(2 fractal fans that come with the case), since i will be running a ryzen 1700 and a gtx 1060 and they require some cooling and cooling requires air ofc.., so will 2 fans be enough if i upgrade? im looking to run my parts on a good temp, no higher than 75(im only gonna be slightly overclocking) and im not worried about the fans rpm, because i dont mind the extra noise so it can cool my parts.

In a year your hard drives are not just going to fail out-rite, I think that you should keep the ssd though, faster boot times and general responsiveness are worth the extra cost. Do you have a pc parts picker list of all your different parts?

I wouldnt get a 1060, I've owned a 1050 ti, 1060 6gb and 1070 and let me tell you, it's basically the same in every game I play.

 

Also, you are planning on getting a 1080 later AFAIK so you shouldn't invest too much into your stepping stone gpu.

Want to custom loop?  Ask me more if you are curious

https://www.ivory.co.il/ and https://ksp.co.il/ these are the 2 leading israel parts markets, 

 

you can change language to english by clocking the american flag on the second link (ksp) but you can on the first link(ivory)  and the search bar is visible

What games did you play? from my experience I have seen a quite big difference between the 6gb 1060 and the 1050ti in demanding games such as Witcher 3.

Is it possible for you to sacrifice on another part of your build on parts such as the case? I know that having a nice looking case is always a plus but overall it doesn't really affect your performance overall (Apart from Watercooling and fan support)
