Er, can I switch a 1060 3GB with a 1050 ti to squeeze in a wireless wifi adapter?

Considering how the situation has been for the last year, that's actually a fairly amazing deal on the GPU. A high end 570 4GB for $190. Just says how messed up the GPU market is. 

Getting the 1600 is worth more than 16GB RAM. And by using a single 8GB stick, you can easily upgrade.

 

Edit: should also mention that the mingiro has Freesync

Depends, how close are you to the router?

If you're maybe a room or so over, a cheap adapter is fine, otherwise I would invest in something with some nice antennas.
