The 1060 should work no problem, you have plenty of power for it and it is better than the 780

The GTX 1060 is roughly equal to the GTX 980 and is significantly faster than a GTX 780.

Power supply make and model?

1060 vs 780.

yep you should be golden, i believe the gtx 1060 only needs a 400w (minimum) PSU. unless you are doing some crazy overclocking you should be all good.

i dont do overclocking . gtx 1060 caax out games on 1080/900p . i dont know how to overclock nor i want to

Quality of PSU is equally important, a low quality unit would put your whole system at risk, a good quality unit would be perfectly fine. A system with 780 needs a good 600w with at least 42A on the 12v rail.

What exact make and model PSU do you have?

It's a piece if junk I wouldn't trust to power a toaster. Made by PowerMan, not 80 Plus certified, 30a on the 12v rail IF it can supply what it's rated at which is doubtful.
