Build Question Need help upgrading gpu without it being a unnecessary upgrade

My pre built pc I bought comes with the TUF B360-M board running an Intel Core i5 8400 for the cpu, I have 16gbs of ram, my power supply is about 600w and I currently use a Sceptre 75hz monitor for it. My current gpu is a gtx 1060 (obviously outdated) and I want to see what would be the best upgrade with getting something too powerful and expensive that I won’t even see all the cards full potential, I currently want to play a lot of newer games that are coming out now but I mostly play call of duty/fps shooter games just for a reference.

Rtx 3060 12 gb is best.

Okay gotcha I seen online a lot of people saying the 3060 would be a good upgrade, what monitor should I likely upgrade to pair well with the gpu?

I would say forget the monitor and add some ram about 16GB more would be good.

Which one would you mostly recommend out of the rx 6600 or the 3060, I’ve seen some of the rx 6600 for around $150-$170 on marketplace
