Hello, Im currently using EVGA 400 N1 PSU, and i'm going to upgrade my VGA to GTX 1060

My Specs Are
I3-6100
Biostar H110MHV3
4GB 2x DDR3
SSD 120GB
HDD 500GB x2
80mm Fan and 120mm Fan

Is my PSU enough for GTX 1060?
 
Solution
Personally I think you are pushing into unsafe territory. The psu only has 360w on the 12v and it’s a low quality psu. I think a decent quality 450w is the minimum I’d trust.
Can you link an online store that sells psus in your region? What's your budget?

THE CV450 would still be a good bit better than your current EVGA.

Your EVGA would power the 1060 wattage wise, but it's not ideal given the low-quality nature of your unit. Also the poor temperature rating could cause some issues if your house is not airconditioned.
