Definitely this. You can always buy a 2nd one later on once the price drops to like $200 in a year or so. 1 of these should give you enough power to max out pretty much every game at 1080p for at least a year, while adding a 2nd should allow you to max out just about every game at 1080p for a further 2 years. 

The 1060 does not support SLI. I think that this already kills any value it could had against the RX 480.

I'd go for one GTX 1070 / RX 490 instead of two GTX 1060 / RX 480 even if the average fps are a bit lower. Microstutter, worse frametimes, missing or late SLI/CF profiles and similar problems aren't worth it IMHO.

Two middleclass cards instead of one faster model also often produce more heat and noise, are less efficient and draw more power.
