Barring the PSU (450 W is ok but not future proof), absolutely great build for a higher mid range PC, good job! Also, consider the RX 580 8G and it is same or lower price than 1060 6G. It offers slightly better performance and have better support for Vulcan API.
If possible try getting a 80+ 550-650W PSU from Thermaltake or Antec or Seasonic , if you can spend from that 70AUD or slightly stretch your budget . This is just to ensure that you would probably never have to invest in an PSU anytime soon, even you get a more power hungry GPU in future, or install additional components (say an extra HDD).
