    So I've been playing beamng for a while now and I use bootcamp on my macbook pro(plz dont talk about how bad macs are at gaming, i know) and I want to build a pc. I think I'm going to use an i5 8400 with 16 gigs of ram, and I was wondering if a geforce gtx 1060 would be suitable for running at about 60 fps or if I should go with a 1070

    A 1060 would pair best, and would run at about 50 FPS. It’s also cheaper, which is a massive plus.

    I know west coast isn’t a quality, they are two separate questions

    Also is there an advantage to the ti or founders edition

    An 1070 would work well with an i5-8400, don't worry about it.
    Or how about a Ryzen 5 instead, it's generally cheaper (i5's might have higher prices due to Intel's inability to produce sufficient 14nm nodes, or whatever), it has more cores (good for BeamNG) and it can be overclockable.
