Hey i just ordered all these parts & i am unsure what PSU to get, Kinda need a budget but want something future proof for OC.. Max i would spend is $150 AUD.

Build:
MSI Z270 Gaming M3 Motherboard
Intel Core i7 7700K
MSI GTX 1060 Gaming x (6gb)
Team T-Force Dark 3000MHz 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 Red Black
Samsung 960 EVO NVMe M.2 250GB SSD
Seagate FireCuda 1TB Desktop SSHD ST1000DX002
be quiet! Shadow Rock Slim CPU Cooler

Yes, the GTX 1060 isn't a power hungry gpu. You could get away with a 450w PSU but considered the price difference between a 450w and a 550w PSU the 550w is the better option for future upgrades.
