Have a budget of 1.1k. Current build I have in mind, even without the case it is already over budget :(

CPU/MB: i5 6500 + GIGABYTE GA-H170M-D3H = $466 (PC Themes)
RAM: Kingston Ram DDR4 8Gb = $63 (PC Themes)
SSD: Samsung 850 evo 256gb = $129 (Lazada)
PSU: Silverstone SFX 450W Bronze = $109 (PC Themes)
GPU: ASUS GTX 1060 3GB DUAL EDITIONS = $349 (PC Themes)
CASE:

TOTAL: $1116

Usage mainly just 1080p gaming, really want to get a gtx 1060 and ssd. Possible?
No monitor/keyboard/mouse/os needed. Can bros help me out. Prefer to get stuff from same place for convenience.

Some key points.... why a sfx psu? What casing are u after?

Next, u don't need the ga-h170. What are u going to use the extra pcie ports for? Are u after the possibility of upgrading to a m.2 ssd in the future?

Why a asus 1060? Is that any particular reason why u choose a premium gpu over the budget ones?

If u gonna ahem your os, I suggest u buy from windows software swap at reddit. Lastly... are u going to build yourself or get pctheme to do it? There's an assembly fee of $30. Factor that in.

Edit: if u want to get more performance which I suggest u do, go qoo10 instead of lazada. Lazada has poor sales for this black Friday.

My suggestion is just drop to 4th gen for cpu and mobo if in a tight budget, performance difference is really minor across 4th and 6th.

Spend the money u save on a gtx1060 6gb and a nicer case like tecware alpha black. Psu change to what the bros here are recommending as well the FSP Hexa+ 550w.

Confirm can fit below your budget one~
