Best Graphics card for 1080p?

I have an Acer H236HL full HD 1080p Monitor and I am a graphics whore, but I'm also Mr. Krabs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0gi-RYNhP8Y so I am cheap. I've just recently purchased all the parts for my PC except for the graphics card. I want to get the best performance as possible. I would prefer a GTX 1060 or similar to achieve optimal performance for what I have. 

The games that I plan on playing are, Escape From Tarkov, Battlefield 1, Rainbow 6: Siege, War Thunder, CS:GO, TESV: Skyrim, and some other future titles. 

 

My question is, what graphics card would be best for my dollar. I have an Intel core I7 7700k to narrow down the choices. Thank you.

a 1080ti would be the best, but I wouldn't recommend it, a 1060/580 would be the perfect 1080p gpu imo, just get what ever is cheaper, unless your monitor has freesync or gsync, if it has freesync get the 580, if it has gsync get the 1060 if it has neither get what ever is cheaper

1080, to me, is the perfect card as it should last you will into the future until ultrawide 1440 or 2160 is available with GPU's to drive the high refresh rates.

it depends on what kind of money you want to spend Linus just did a review of later 2017 cards and 1060 did a good job for 1080p you can find the review here

Get a 1050 Ti, it is great for 1080p with most of the titles you are playing, if you want a bit more but don't want to spend too much, get a 1060 3GB.
