When I looked at this, the conclusion at the moment is the 1060 is only about 10% faster than the 970 so not really worth it.
This may change as new software makes better use of the new capabilities but in that time the price will probably have dropped too.
Cheer, not enough to warrant upgrade, Dishonored 2 is the first games I have play where I have to lower the setting to get it to run smoothly.
If you want to play the latest AAA games at full settings on a high resolution then get used to paying £500 for a new GPU every 2 years.
