To put it simple. Spend 50$ and you have a functional computer. Dont spend 50$ and have a soon to be dead computer.

Doesnt matter that thing is from around 2006. It was meant as a garbage bin officr pc psu (and still fried those). It can even do thr full 150w on an 8pin.

 

Use your pc without the 1060 for now or use it with the jank setup and buy a whole new pc again soon.

 

This thing has NO portections if ANYTHING happens stuff dies

This is a deeply unwise thing to do. 

 

The most bare-bones modern 500W PSU for ~$40 is a much better option. 

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.

OK.

 

Why are you telling me this? Doesn't change anything about what I said.

i have a core i5 4gen 14gb ram a gtx 1060 strix 6gb and bestec 250w psu

Bestec PSUs are absolute trash. They're built for OEMs like HP, Dell and Acer to use in their budget PC lines. They're designed to last every second of the manufacturer's warranty before becoming a time bomb, that's it. They are cheaply built and poorly designed, and janking one up by using it in tandem with another PSU for the same system is unwise. Spend $40 on a 450W PSU that isn't a hazard to your other components.

I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk.
