I am completely upgrading my old pc
Specs:
CPU - AMD A10 7890K
GPU - 750ti 2gb VRAM
RAM - 8gb ddr3
To this:
CPU - i5 6500
GPU - gigabyte geforce gtx 1060 oc 6gb VRAM
RAM - 8 or 16gb ddr4
I am curious if the new pc build would have any bottlenecking or not, thanks.

What motherboard are you going to?

DDR4 at this point...

What PSU do you currently have?

You're probably oversensationalizing the term 'bottleneck'. Such as, that 1060 can't approach 1080 speeds since it's 'bottlenecking'.

What you've described should work, although you would need DDR4 in the new build.

The motherboard says it supports ddr3
 
I haven't already bought the board yet, do you have any suggestions in which one I should get that supports ddr4 and has a lga 1151 socket?

This is very good news!!

Couple questions, what size board do you need? ATX, mATX..etc?

What currency/country you in so we can show deals, if any.

Do you have a total budget for: Motherboard, CPU, DDR4 RAM, and GPU?

Do you need any other components?

mATX would be preferred

my currency is gbp (great British pounds)

budget anywhere between 50£ and 90£

any other components, umm some good ddr4 ram
 
Thus I added it to the parts list. I cross checked the RAM I chose with AsRocks' QVL (Qualified Vendor List) to be compatible.

It usually don't matter on QVL. But I don't want to give you a bad part to buy just to be safe. Although, sometimes RAM can come to you as a dud. Same goes for other computer parts like a motherboard.
