Should be OK.  PCI 2.0 x16 is the same as PCI 3.0 x8 which doesn't reduce performance much.

To what extent my i5 4440S 2.8 GHz stock will bottleneck MSI Gaming X GTX 1060 6 GB OC with 8 GB of DDR3 1333 MHz RAM.

Games to be considered: PUBG, COD BO, CODWW2, Overwatch, Tomb raider, etc AAA titles

Pretty mild actually, the game's in your list are easy enough to run that you won't notice a huge drop in performance but you'll probably want to upgrade in a gen or two

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

You won't even notice it.

Though, if you have a motherboard with PCIe 2.0, whatever CPU you can put in the socket might be limiting it.

I know it is easier to just create a thread and get other people to look this up, but one quick google search found the answers you were looking for. This doesn't seem to hard now does it?

Here, it showed no noticeable decrease in performance, except in dying light were there was a 7% performance decrease. 

PCI-e 2.0 offer 8GB/s, where-as PCI-e 3.0 offeres 16GB/s. So I'm doubting that most games saturate the 2.0 bandwidth.
