750W is overkill, 350W is enough for a 1060 (I would get 500W for future upgradability). 

Please quote our replys so we get a notification and can reply easily. Never cheap out on a PSU, or I will come to watch the fireworks.

why such an overkill power supply(kudos to picking an excellent one though)? just get a good 500-600w psu instead. if you're in the US, the cx550m is $40 and the GQ 650W is $60, get those instead.

i'd try to get a cheaper mobo, ssd and psu for a gtx 1070 instead, the i7 is overkill for a gtx 1060(unless you're doing editing/rendering/streaming/recording).
