The minimum recommended PSU for the GTX 1060 is 400 Watts, as stated by Nvidia. Though, for some extra headroom, and future proofing, you can also get any high quality 500/550 Watts PSU.

What's your budget for the PSU ? And, in which currency will you pay ?

Are the following PSU brands available in your country ? I would recommend you to get the following PSU models and brands. These are high quality units. Or, just look for similar SKUs.

SEASONIC PRIME, and Prime Ultra, or FOCUS Plus GOLD, Focus Plus Platinum.

CORSAIR AXi, RMi, RMx 550/650W, SF, HX 2017, HXi.

FSP - Hydro PTM 550.

Cooler Master - MasterWatt Maker MiJ, V series 550.

Antec - High Current Pro, High Current Platinum, Earthwatts Pro Gold, HCG Gold.

Super Flower - Leadex Gold II.

be Quiet! - Dark Power Pro 11, Straight Power 11, Dark Power Pro P10.

EVGA -Supernova.

I want to know what to buy 6, 6+2 or 2x 6+2?

But you need to give some rough estimate of your budget. Without knowing the exact range, it's hard to recommend any particular PSU model, at least from my side.

Any high-quality decent PSU will have sufficient PCI-E cables for the GPU, 6-pin +8-PIN. If you plan to buy this GPU, 1060 6gb (asus dual), then the card only requires a SINGLE 6-PIN power connector, assuming this is the exact model you are looking for.

If this is the card you're looking at: ASUS Dual-GTX 1060 6GB, it has a single 6-pin power connector. Checking Power Supplies in Italy (Italian PC Part Picker), here is a list I'd choose from: Power Supplies - PC Part Picker Italy.

Sadly NO. That looks like some low quality generic PSU model. Hard to recommend this PSU.

Ideally, any new power supply should have 2x6+2. Most 1060 models use a single 6-pin, but some variants MIGHT have an 8-pin.

I can't say I've ever heard of that brand, and that makes me hesitant.

When I go to the specifications page, it lists 1A of power for every single rail. That has to be incorrect, but, that the information isn't listed makes me think that something's wrong, or that the PSU is not worth getting.

Low quality PSUs can fail, and, sometimes, they take out other components with them. The PSU is one where you want a solid unit that is well known to be high quality.

That's again a budget low-end PSU from BE QUIET, thought at least it is much better than the previous MS-TECH unit. I think this PSU is based on an older platform.

Look for a Corsair CX or Seasonic S12ii. Those are probably the cheapest ones that will work with it and not blow up.
