here is a list of the various 1060 cards with dimensions included. http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-3047729/nvidia-geforce-gtx-1000-series-megathread-faq-resources.html#17902600

your case's product page says it "Supports high-end graphics cards up to 315mm / 12.4"" which is pretty much all the 1060 cards. so looks like you're good to go with such an upgrade.

your psu only has a single 6-pin power connection so look the list of models over and be sure you get one that only needs this. some models use an 8-pin connection. all the info is on the link above

Case allows cards of: 315mm / 12.4 inch ....So just make sure the card length is shorter than 315mm.

Also listen to the PSU cable \ PCIE needs above.

Thank a lots. Is 400w psu enough for gtx 1060 or i should to buy a 450W/ more psu?

it's enough with that locked cpu. just note the 6-pin power lead and don't get one that needs an 8-pin. plenty that only use a 6-pin so should be easy to find

Also you might want to upgrade that very poor power supply , to protect your components.
