If you change your CPU, you have to change your motherboard and your RAM sticks, if you have the money, go for it. The CPU is used for everything, it'll be faster in everything, but changing the GPU won't affect your experience, it'll be bottleneck by your CPU in most games so...

If you have the money, go for the CPU, your GPU is good enough

Also, you can go for the new i5 K version, or the new i7 K version. Those are beasts.

Unless he does very CPU intensive tasks a new CPU with a GTX 660 is going to be bottlenecked much more than a GTX 1060 with an i7 860. That's still a pretty capable 4c/8t cpu that will easily handle most games with very little bottlenecking.

Get the GPU first.

Then buy a new mobo/ram combo

I have a 1080p monitor and i want to play at high settings...

 

Im focused on 60fps at 1080p.

 

I also have 2x4 gb ddr3 1333 ram but i also have a 4gb 1600 corsair vengeance stick would i be able to swap one 2gb dimm out for the 4gb without any issues?

 

My rig is also purely based on gaming.
