My PC specs are :-

Motherboard - MSI B250M Mortar
PSU- Cosair 550 Watts
Ram - 8GB

I'm using GTX 1050ti at the moment , I want to upgrade my graphics card to GTX 1060 6GB

So pls tell me will it support?
 
You do not specify the CPU you are using (the main users of power in a system are the CPU and the graphics cards. I will assume that your CPU uses 120W or less- This is all of them that can fit in socket 1151)

You can roughly add up the power requirements of your system by looking up the power consumed by each component. You can read more here : http://www.buildcomputers.net/power-consumption-of-pc-components.html


The bottom line is that you will have no problem. 550w is plenty for your setup. Check that your PSU has a 6 pin power cable for the 1060 board.

I am running a similar setup with an intel 8700K and an MSI branded 1060, on a 450W sfx power supply.

 
MERGED QUESTION
Question from sukhimehta : "How much fps will I get in these Specs"







Again, impossible to tell without specifics, like resolution and level of details. You could search on youtube your exact setup with such games and see how many fps people get and on what settings, although we have all seen a fair amount of fake videos, but this should at least give you a general idea. The limiting factor in most recent titles which prefer many threads will be your i3 (just a dual core with hyperthreading). GPU is good enough for smooth gameplay with high settings @ 1080p.
