They're pci express cards, they'll work in pci-e x16 slots (any version, 3.0 or 2.0 would be recommended)

GTX 1060 cards use up to around 125 watts , so a good 450w psu would be enough

 

That cheap gtx1060 has only 3 gb of memory on it which is enough NOW for most games at 1080p but not sure that it's enough for ULTRA quality. High and Very High, probably enough. In the future more ad more games will use more than 3 GB of memory on very high quality presets.

 

You should try to get one with 6 GB of memory if you can.

 

Another option could be going for RX 570 4 GB like this one: https://www.amazon.de/XFX-RX-570P427D6-Grafikkarte-1264MHz-Express/dp/B06ZZGJBMW/

Compared to GTX1060, it uses a bit more power (up to ~170w) and in most games it's probably a bit slower (but we're talking 98fps on RX 570 vs 105 fps on GTX 1050, so both very playable)

Anyway .. 233 euro is a lot but prices are coming down a bit, miners used to buy these AMD cads

 

If you find gtx 1060 6 GB at 220-230 e go for that instead

 

or if can wait maybe see what shows up on black friday, on the 24th. Amazon.co.uk and maybe .de as well (you can order from any of them) should have some sales all week before and ater the 24th of this month

Then go directly on the manufacturer's page.

 

For example the product description on Amazon lists the product model number as GV-N1060WF2OC-3GD so you can just go on Gigabyte's website to look for that model , or enter that in Google Search and look for the link pointing to Gigabyte's website

 

Look how easy it is :  https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N1060WF2OC-3GD

 

Then click on Specification link on the page, or look at the pictures.
