Am I bottlenecking?

I just took the leap from laptop to desktop, but never thought of that I might be bottlenecking in this build. It's something that's kind of unfamiliar to me. 

 

The specs of my new computer is:

  • Corsair CX750M, 750W PSU
  • Intel Core i5-7600 Kaby Lake Prosessor
  • Stock CPU cooler.
  • ASUS Prime B250M-Plus BULK, Socket-1151
  • Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 2400MHz 16GB (2x8GB)
  • Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 6GB
  • Corsair Forceseries LE200 240GB 2,5"

 

Is there something I should upgrade? I'm already planning on a 2TB HDD for storage, but performance wise, what would be the best "next step".

Throw in an i7-7700. Other than that, not too much you can do.

 

No bottlenecks in sight, you'll be all good to go.

An aftermarket cooler would be nice, but nothing other than that.

That had crossed my mind, although the stock cooler should be sufficient.

Better SSD, like an MX300 or 850 EVO, would be preferred. 

 

Otherwise, you're good.
