I can't speak on the quality or actual performance of that PSU, but yeah 550W should be enough for that build, certainly.

It's a very poor unit, with a weak 12v output, Im surprised its managed to power a 660 without imploding. I recommend replacing it asap.

hello.if your current setup is working well you may actually decrease power consumption by swapping gtx660 with gtx 1060.
use this power calculator:

if you calculate the power for your system and then swap the cards,you will see that 17w less is needed.so if your current system has no problems,you should have no problems after upgrade either unless the psu is not of good quality.

Yeah, i already check it and im surprised that 1060 can reduce 17 watt from 660..
thanks brother for giving me that link..

The problem is that when it does fail(and it will) these cheap units have a habit of taking other parts with them. Your currently gambling with the health of the system and when gambling eventually the house always wins.
