Pay $50 for the PSU and live to tell about it! :P

 

Grab a CX450M from Corsair. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01B72VXE6

 

You're paying a bit much for the 1060 3GB. A $210 RX 480 is better. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M1YE9TD/

 

You're also paying a lot for RAM. Try to get a kit for $40, more than that is too much.

The 1060 6GB is a bit better than the 480. The 1060 3GB is a bit worse than the 480. It's also got 3GB which isn't enough for max settings on some games. Given the same price, I would choose RX 480 4GB almost always.
