RAM: 24GB

Motherboard: h170-gaming 3 gigabyte

Unless you PSU can't support it, it looks small for both cards power wise. It should be alright. You should set the worker to only mine with gpu, no cpu.

520W is enough.

When I mine ZEC with 1080ti, it uses about 280W, after OC about 320W.

the psu connector can support what i'm worrying is that
gtx 1070 consume 150w. and the gtx 560 consume 250w. 
so i only have around 120w left. 
will the 120w be able to run all the hardware inside my pc?
i have like 3 HDD 1 SSD and 1 m2 ssd. + processor and motherboard

It's not a wise idea to run a PSU near maximum output.

some systems have issues when it comes to doing that. hard to state whether yours will hiccup during game play or not.

if ever i did not experience any hiccup or whatsoever.
will it damage or shorten the life span  of any hardware?

anytime you push something hard, you run the risk of damaging it. Miners who run rigs 24/7 often have a premature failure of equipment.

Thank you.
also i would take the change to ask you. you seems to know a lot.
is 70c mining a good temp? or is it too hot for my gtx 1070?

70 is a bit high for 24/7, but that's my opinion. you want to keep them as cool as possible. open air setups on risers are much better for thermals.
