GPU power cable/s firmly inserted? CPU gold contacts all clean?

Have you updated the BIOS on the Motherboard?? I know on my Gigabyte 1150 board I had to update the BIOS to install a GTX 970 as it would just give me a black screen on boot. Also you may need the update for the processor too. So I would guess a 1060 would need a update as well.

Depending on the board maybe it is incompatible? I've known some boards not to work with certain cards even though it's fine with another.

Make it easier on yourself & only change one part at a time - do they work individually?
